I will never wear two watches at one time. It's silly. I have worn a small fitness tracker on the other wrist, but not a Apple watch or Garmin.

 

Well look who is sooooooo fancy.


I do. Every dang day. I ride bikes, work out etc daily so wearing the Garmin Instinct is certainly beneficial. But I also love steelie fancy things.

 

"I'm expecting some serious flaming but I've dawned my Nomax suit"

It's NOMEX

 

fixed it.. I wore one in the Army for 4 years... you'd think I'd know that.

 

So I recently read an article on Hodinkee that talks about guys who sport two watches... Of course, we all know about the famous Mr. Hayak of Swatch Group who wore more than 2.. and I've heard of people wearing two mechanical watches, but what I wanted to do is stop carrying my iPhone around as much and try to rely more on an Apple Watch ... I'd never owned one and always told myself I never would as I love mechanical watches.. but I have been doing this for two days now and frankly, it's working for me... yes, it looks sort of odd, but I've never been one to care what people think (with in reason)..

Thoughts? Anyone else done this?

Of course with this being WUS public forum, I'm expecting some serious flaming but I've dawned my Nomax suit, so speak your mind..

Apple Watch AND Traditional Watch?

I'm considering purchasing an Apple Watch. I've held off because I really like traditional watches. For me, a traditional watch is as much a style accessory as it is a way to check the time. Currently, I wear a Fitbit Charge 3 on my left wrist and a regular watch on my right (I'm...

Wearing 2 watches

Does anyone wear their apple watch and also a more expensive watch like a Rolex? How do you wear them together? Is there a band to make the AW look more like a bracelet or jewelr?

Dear owners of smartwatches, how do you rotate them in...

Unfortunately for me, I have caught the smartwatch bug from the release of the Apple Watch Series 6 and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed wearing it the past few days. However, it makes me question how this smartwatch would fit into my daily rotation as I’m tempted to strap it on every day to achieve my...

Thoughts on wearing an apple watch?

Saw the Hermes edition series 5 and I must say it looks pretty good. For anyone who has a collection going, how did you manage to fit an apple watch into your rotation? It seems like an every day watch but I feel like I'd be doing some of my analogs a disservice by getting one considering the...

How many of you rotate a 'traditional' watch...

I'm curious if you guys rotate a traditional watch with an Apple watch / smartwatch?? I've been looking at buying a new watch for quite a while now...as my collection is pretty thin, like 3 watches. I have misplaced one...a slick black and orange Citizen diver. Currently, I have an Apple...

== Does This Look Ok?? — Thank You in Advance, judg69 ==

Hi everybody, I think most everyone knows me by now, but to quickly recap : 69 years old, some serious medical conditions ( ok at present, but two life threatening hospitalizations/surgeries in last 9 years ). Forever I have worn my watch on my left wrist and for the past 10 years and a...

Just Because: Doing The Two-Wrist Tango With The Apple Watch Series 4

Double the watch, double the fun, or is two a crowd?

www.hodinkee.com

 

Never, not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Now, I would put two watches on one strap (NATO for example) and wear it on the correct wrist (the left)

 

Fit bit on the right..timepiece on the left…every day.

 

at the last Summer olympics I remember Michael Phelps doing the same. quite common amongst a lot of people....

I double wrist...I have done so with an Apple Watch as well. I do what I want.

 

I don’t but my wife has done it many times…one wrist a Garmin venu and on the other one of the Midos I gifted her. She feels comfortable that way, most of the time is one or the other, but some others goes that way. She exercises a lot and likes to track her heartbeat and so…

 

> I double wrist...I have done so with an Apple Watch as well. I do what I what.

please edit typo....

 

Edit...ah I see it

 

Also how do you like the new Apple Watch?

 

well, it's my first experience with a smart watch and while I find it a bit clunky to work with, and my OCD goes nuts with the fingerprints.. I definitely can see keeping my iPhone behind a lot more now.. I think while it's not as stylish as I'd like, from a purely utility stand point, it makes sense.

 

This is how people that wear more than one watch look like to me:

 

I don't understand OP's argument. In order to stop carrying around a phone, he straps something similar to his wrist?

 

I work with computers all day. I hate smartwatches, smartbands and even smartphones (but of course I have one, I'm not a hermit). I don't wanna see a damn screen after 5PM (unless lurking in some niche hobby forum and stuff like that). Also, I'm the "less is more" camp when it comes to fashion and accessories, but that's me. In any case, since you're asking... Hard no.

 

Wearing one watch is pushing it.

 

Sinn has you covered, if you don't want a watch on each wrist.

 

This should be the way the evolution goes. Small smart display on a strap or bracelet.

I'm a geek for all tech devices and have toyed with the idea of a smart watch but ultimately I just don't see any real need for one (I do wear a sports watch with GPS for running) and I WILL NOT go two wrist wearing

 

I have already provided my answer in two of the threads listed in post #4. What else is interesting, these two threads appeared in November and December 2022. Now if I was a betting person, I would say it was a slow day at Hodinkee; and, Hodinkee used one of WUS threads as an "inspiration" for one of its own articles.

 

Why.....?

 

Sure, why not… but no judging when I side stare into an eye roll.

 

... yes, it looks sort of odd, but I've never been one to care what people think (with in reason)..

Thoughts? Anyone else done this?.

…NoSeasBoludo,Ché…

well I'm just curious what others think about it ... not changing my current view or anything like that.

 

Just cause you have 2 wrists doesn’t mean you need to wear 2 watches…

I have 5 pockets….does that mean I should wear 5 pocket watches….

 

Well I’m not that active, but if I was, it makes sense. One is just a hobby that’s already turning into a niche while the other is pushing itself as a necessity in today’s times.

 

I triple wrist it.
But people always wonder why I'm adjusting my pants.

 

 

Why not?

There's a saying that goes "a man with 2 watches never knows what time it is". A guy wearing two watches told me this back in to 80s.

Hopefully, I don't have to explain this, but for those in the back - this is based on the assumption that the two watches will never be perfectly synchronized so you will always be presented with slightly different time readings so you will always question which one is correct. With one watch, there are no conflicts so you will "know" the time even if it is incorrect.

Unfortunately, Apple watches and radio/satellite watches kind of kill this saying [emoji53].
