No i would not wear a watch if it wasn’t my apple watch because i would have my phone to show me all the crap. I use it for medication reminders and heart rate but it’s handy for texts and sleep tracking
Apple
A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
No but I still miss my pebble steel
I have a dress watch my dad left me when he passed. I wear it sometimes on my dominant hand. Always wear the Apple Watch, though.
I track with my Apple watch, so all of my other watches are gathering dust somewhere.
No. I never wore one, had to get used to wearing a watch with my AW
Absolutely! I have 20 some other watches. Everything from Gshock, automatics, manual winds, and my favorite is the Oris Big Crown. Sometimes I wear them on the weekends or other occasions.
Never wore a watch before 2019. Only wear the Apple Watch for its health tracking and heart rate alarms.
No, the main reason is that's the only one I have. Second, I like it so I wouldn't anyway.
Yes. I have a few other watches that I will wear. Usually it’s when I’m dressing up as I don’t think the Apple Watch looks right at a formal or semi formal occasion but also when I just feel like it. I like my Apple Watch but there is something about a real mechanical watch.
I wore GShocks daily up until last week when I got my first AW. I switched over to Apple from Android back in August and have enjoyed the experience. I was familiar with apple as my work phone is a 12 but never really dove deep until recently. I'm not sure if I'll ever throw a 'regular' watch on again or will I 🤔
Yup! Some days i just get fed up with my apple watch and want a peaceful day with minimal phone usage, so i wear a normal watch. i have a good collection with rolex, cartier, and some basic ones like fossil and citizen.
i wear those watches when i’m going out somewhere fancy, to a conference, somewhere i need to talk to people, dates, etc.
apple watch for more gym and chilling at home or running errands.
I feel the same. Recently I just turned off all notification syncing from phone. So I‘m not getting disturbed by notifications, but still have the nice sleep and activity tracking features.
The first Pulsar in 74. Hand me down.
I'm a mechanical watch enthusiast and have a modest collection, but I've been mainly wearing my Apple watch after I got my first one. Love getting notifications and using Apple Pay with the Apple Watch. Now I only wear mechanical watches when I'm attending a more formal event or I know I'm going to meet other watch enthusiasts.
I take my regular old casio on holidays, that way i do not have to worry about charging and.or flashing expensive hardware in places that is not wise.
Yes, I have an automatic Seiko as my best watch for special occasions. I also have a couple of Casios which I wear every now and then, but I wear my AW 90% of the time I’d say.
I wear AW every day, but wen I go out hiking, running or MTB I put Apple Watch on charger and take my Suunto with me.
I have my AW on the left wrist and my regular everyday analog watch on my right wrist
I do, nothing special, a couple of Tissot’s and a Seiko. It would be better if the AW would actually communicate 2 ways with the phone as I still do steps with one of my other watches on and phone in my pocket. I think it’s absolutely rubbish that the steps, distance etc the phone records don’t sync back to the watch.
I have 6 tick toks in my drawer.
Yep wear my dj36 every day and wear my AW for exercise and sleep
I don’t need to close my rings like an addict because im already well aware of my body and health and I don’t really like using the Apple Wallet stuff on the watch specifically
Not really, I have a few citizens, seiko’s and a few Invicta’s But I like all the tracking & other stuff to not wear it. I always tell myself I’m going to wear my “nicer” watches (Dressy) when we go out to dinner at a steak house or on a double date but never do.
Yes. I have a digital fossil watch that has the look of a traditional watch with many of the same features as the Apple Watch I own. Sleek design for fancier outings. Everything else I own is Apple but the fossil watch really knocks it out of the park in the looks department but I wear my Apple Watch daily as it’s more practical and is more seamless with my iPhone.
I use an Apple Watch all day, and a Garmin device (in addition to the Apple Watch) to track all my workouts. Generally I use an Apple Watch as my smartwatch and main health and fitness tracker, and a Garmin device as my main workout and performance tracker. I choose this devices because I think that each one is the best in its category.
Sometimes I swap to my old Apple Watch while my new one charges.
No. I hate watches, but my AW is the first watch I've ever worn consistently.
Sometimes I’ll wear a little women’s Casio on my other wrist because it looks cute, but usually with a bunch of other bangles and beads. AW stays on my left wrist through the day, and my right at night.
I wear an omega seamasre 300m chronodiver when I need to not worry about battery!
I built up an impressive collection of watches over the years (lost count after 35) ranging from fashion watches to quality timepieces and since going AW two years ago have literally never strapped one on. Can’t even give them away.
Over several decades I built a very nice collection of higher end watches which now sit looking at me forlorn for being neglected. But for formal occasions or others where, for me, an analog watch is more appropriate. Otherwise, yes, the AW lives on my wrist.
I have a Rolex that I wore every day for 15+ years until I got my first AW earlier this year. I wear the AW every day now, but will wear the Rolex to a big meeting, nice restaurant, or a party/function. But my interest in other watches has increased recently, and I expect that I’ll be buying other mechanical watches to mix in the rotation. I also bought quite a few nice bands for the AW to give it different looks and dress it up or down.
I’m that weirdo that wears an Apple Watch on the right, for health tracking, and a regular watch on the left because I like the ‘old fashioned’ mechanics of it. And because they’re a thousand times prettier than that black square on the other wrist.
Sometimes people ask me about it, when I explain it they shrug and go on with their day.
