Offhand I can only think of two professions where watches are prohibited: medics, and workers in foundries that use electric furnaces. The first for hygiene the second because of the strong magnetic fields.

@ninalanyon and food factories. Don't want bits of anything falling into the production lines. Yep, I worked in one as an engineer.

what should i Do?
You should make yourself aware of the safety regulations in your workplace so that you don't have to wonder about this sort thing.

This doesn't make any sense to me. Why would either one of you lose your job because you're wearing a watch?

@Rutterman we work in a factory though?

@Thexboxoneguy1991 Just follow whatever guidelines or regulations are in place at your job. If wearing a watch while working is prohibited or discouraged, don't wear one. Use your own judgment if the matter isn't specifically addressed, or ask your supervisor/manager about it if you're still unsure.
