Same here. Got some fancy Swiss something or other when I retired. Haven't worn a watch a single day since.

Splitting my time between the montane and the mesas
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,

I can’t stand it when I forget my watch. Mine are always relatively cheap “railroad” watches with clear Arabic numerals on a white face for easy and quick reading. Current one is a Swiss Army brand. I also use a velcro-closing strap so it fits just right - not too tight, not too loose. Very utilitarian. I gave my fancy gold Omega dive watch to my grandson, but I doubt he wears it much, as Hunter says about the young generations. I was always afraid to jump in salt water with it anyway. Haven’t had an auto-winder in decades though.
Not exactly, but real close —
Love my new word - Horologist. Thanks, Hunter.
