Wearing or not wearing a watch, rings, etc.

Years ago I was a watch guy - then once I got mobile phones I abandoned watches. Some people are die-hard watch fanatics and you're considered naked if you don't have one.

Most of the time knowing the time isn't important anyway.

Same sort of applies with rings - lots of people have them, but loads more don't. Lots of people have rings that have nothing to do with being married/engaged/attached/inlove. Plenty of people (women in particular) wear rings to give the impression they're married/attached when they're not.

Having never been married myself the infatuation with rings and stuff like heirloom pieces is lost on me.
