So watches are required to counter severe cases of idiocy?

There's an ancient chinese recipe to use watches to cure cancer. TK should try it.

I don't think turning back time works like that outside of cartoons dude.

Re: Watches
I like having a watch as it means I can track how late / early I am and therefore change my speed when going to the train station or whatnot. I don't have a mobile phone and if I did I'd dislike having to get it out of my pocket everytime I wanted to know the time.
Needless to say my watch didn't cost £500.

Re: Watches
Some people don't. one of my best friends' boyfriends doesn't have a phone. He goes off to war zones to teach the children how to read and she doesn't hear from him for a month or so. It's weird, when so many people these days do.

Re: Watches
Why not just buy a watch that tells the time and doesn't cost you £50

Re: Watches
I hadn't read nod's post before but now I have and I agree with him wholeheartedly!
I wouldn't want to impress the kind of people who make a judgement about you based on what kind of watch you have. It's there to tell the time - not something you should spend anything over £50 on.
If you're rich enough and can afford it, then fine. But if it's just an expensive fashion accessory I think I'd rather spend £100-£500 on clothes, thanks all the same.
