I do not wear watch. Most of us do not wear watch. There was time not to long ago when we didn't have access to time readily. It wasn't too long ago. It was only advent of iPhone that made watch useless. It wasn't cell phone. It was iPhone. iPhone was "invented" and released 2007. So it was only 14 years ago.
Oddly with the claim of death of watch in 2007. I now waar watch and many of us now wear watch again. And it is Apple Watch. It is no longer a tool of time but tool to monitor ourselves. A tool to be alerted with. So we wear watch again.
Odd thing is..
With advent of smart watches, it was proclaimed the end and death of analog watches. Fineries of Swiss, German and Japanese movements were to be death. So they said. But you see it may actually be the smartwatches that may have saved the watch maker. Life works in misterious ways. It is watch wearers that buys watch. And when everyone dumped wearing watch, smart watch brought them back. These new watch wearers will buy watches. Why? Because they wear watches!
Watch movements, the mechanism that makes the watch move with spring has 3 camps: Swiss, German and Japanese. On the side is Chinese and Russian trying to get into the game. Category:Watch movement manufacturers - Wikipedia
