How can something so small as a wristwatch be so significant and important in our lives? It seems that even though time flies, the wristwatch is an object and timekeeping device that has been, and continues to be, an object of significance in our society. Wristwatches have been a wardrobe standard for over one hundred years, which begs the question: What are the top five reasons to wear a watch?
Wristwatch = Convenience
The most obvious reason is convenience. Worn on the wrist, the wristwatch is always with you and more easily accessible than a phone. Plus, it’s more socially acceptable to take a quick glance at a wristwatch than it is to pull out a phone and check the time during a meeting or conference presentation.
The ingenuity of the wristwatch design is that it is totally hands-free, (no Bluetooth option necessary), which is an important factor that cannot be undervalued in our modern and rapid society, where using phones during driving can imperil the lives of countless other people.
