Yes, I wear a watch.
It's an old Swiss made Waltham, circa 1958...1959, that I picked up in a shop several years ago. No batteries. I have to wind it every day. It is attractive, it is functional, and I'd frankly be lost without it. It's only 17 jewels...nothing fancy. But, it has kept excellent time for about 50 years now. It goes to the watchmaker's shop every two years for a cleaning and oiling. I have owned, and used, several watches over the years. Usually analog. I have only ever owned one digital watch. This one seems more a "part of me" than any of the others.
