Being in broadcast I need to know what time it is. I wear a wrist watch with real hands on it so I can tell what time it is. For a wrist watch, I personally don't care for a digital readout. I grew up with a wrist watch that had real hands and I learned to tell time and how much time I had simply by looking at the position of the hands, I didn't have to do any math at all in my head. All that I need to know, for example, is that I need to be somewhere in 3/4 of a turn of the big hand. In my case I don't always need precision time, I deal with that separately.

I haven't worn a wristwatch in maybe 30 years. I generally use my cellphone
or whatever timepiece that's handy. Or, I just guess. I don't wear my
wedding ring either. Jewelry of any kind bothers me.
