I always wear a watch...generally a TAG-Heuer that is I got for being a member of a championship-winning motorsports team 11 years ago. But, you can't see a watch when you have your gloves and jacket on (at least, not mine...long gauntlet gloves) so I use the clock on instrument cluster.

Just curious where do you work that you cannot have a cell phone. Train driver? Top Secret Defense contractor?
Nothing as cool as a train driver. I am a contractor, and I do work in the DC region. There's a lot of jobs in this region where devices that can record and/or transmit are prohibited. I think they call me a systems analyst, but all it means is I stare at a computer screen all day long. I'm a nerd.

lol! I noticed that too. But I'm the same way thats why I've not posted pics of my watches... The battery has died on some of them. Currently 6 or 7 are running... The others I've let just die and will replace the battery when I feel like wearing them...

I'm actually surprised that four of them show the same time. Only one of the watches has a Quartz movement, and I don't keep the mechanicals wound when not worn. I must have been doing lots of watch swapping when I took the picture.

Same. As much as possible. I like to get away from time pieces when riding if I can, but if I have to there is one on the dash.

GMT 2 for me as well....I've had several Rolex over the years sadly they generally don't keep time as accurately as a digi watch :exclaim:
I generally leave the GMT in the drawer. Prefer the Nomos - much less bulky. My GMT is from 1993 and I like the look of it. Sadly, over the last few years Rolex has gotten too "blingy" and even less elegant in their designs.

None. My iPhone keeps time just fine, and it doesn't take any space on my wrist to get in the way of riding, gloves, jackets, etc.

When I wear a watch while riding, its a $10 Timex digital from Wally World. No tears when I bash it on a rock. And it's got a stop watch feature that comes in handy from time to time.
