Watches
I don't wear a watch. The explanation usually involves something along the lines of "I don't care that much about time" (though I'm punctual) or "I don't want the tan lines" (though I'm not that vain.) I've got dozens of clocks around me at any moment, computer, cell, pager, Palm, digital camera, car clocks, public clocks. I rarely find the need to go query my wrist for the time.
I heard a quote the other day that I liked. It said that our 'human' notion of time: years, months, days, hours, seconds, are all just arbitrary divisions of the one life you have. The length of that is unknown at any given time. Why get hung up about time?
Now for someone who professes such a disinterest in time, I am always on the lookout for unique clocks. Preferably, something that indicates or displays the time in a way I hadn't considered before.
And despite all this, I do have a 'dream watch'. It would have an analog clock face with 1-12 numerals, but no hands. The background should be a digital watch that is normally not seen, but can be brought up with a push of a button (I've seen more of these recently, but not combined with an 'empty' analog clock face.) I'd wear it every day, heck, I'd wait for the moment someone asked me for the time, anticipating the conversation.
