slask111 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) I knew something was wrong when i sat my fat ass down in the car today. Something felt "off", you know like when you wonder, did i really turn the oven off? After a few secs it came to me.. i had left the house not wearing a watch!!! God help me, what to do now i thought. This have not happened to me.. ever. Not that i can remember anyway. Yea sometimes you leave the house not bringing the cellphone, carkeys, wallet or hat. But you never forget the watch. Atleast i dont. Now i didnt return home to get a watch on my wrist, after all i was just on my way to the post office. But i thought about it. Had my doubts if i could show myself to the post woman not wearing any watch. As a matter of fact i could, and she was even nice to me. But i wont try this cinda stunt again! So it was a first for me today. Being in public without something awsome on my wrist! Hurray? Do you also feel naked? Now sry for the spelling, not native eng.

redwatch Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 I've done that a few times in the past and actually called my girlfriend to pick out a watch for me to wear and have her drop it off to me at work! I hate not wearing a watch! It just feels wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve52 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 I've done it before too. It feels ........ Creepy! Naked. Wrong. What bothers me is that I'm so into watches, how could I not notice? Am I losing my mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxman Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 This has happened to me only a couple of times. It just feels so wrong and makes me feel uncomfortable. I have a few desent quartz watches so If Im running late I can strap and go on the fly Mike (ps) Memo to self, must purchase a watch winder.

numptyj Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Yup have done it before, bad times, its just a natural reflex to turn my left wrist and have a look. The last time I forgot it I kept checking my wrist all day but there was nothing to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offshore Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Yeh donchya hate that! I left mine off one morning, got 10kms towards work, and turned around! I then even took an extra quartz watch I had, and put it in the drawer at work, just in case! Worse than naked in the hotel corridor!

ChipSlap Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 No, never. When I first get up in the morning to do my personal hygene tasks, I strap on last night's watch as I walk to the bathroom. If I want a different one for the day, I change it after coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlr8tn Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Man...I hate those days when I run out of the house without my watch. I feel lost all day long. Next time I'm turning around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member X Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 I always feel naked not wearing a watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 I can't stand the feeling of not wearing a watch... That's why I rarely actually remove mine for any prolonged period. I'll even put another watch on if I'm doing modifications to the one I'm wearing. It's weird, I know, there are enough clocks around me (wall, PC, iPhone, microwave etc) that I can find out what the time is if I'm not wearing a watch, but as above, it just feels creepy wrong to not have a watch on my wrist, although I think some of that is down to the body 'being used' to the contact/weight, and missing its absence, rather than having an OCD need to know what the time actually is on command Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
