I've never worn anything like this before. Until I recently received a gold chain and a nice looking watch as a gift. It still feels like a foreign object on the wrist, but I think I like it. How do you see it?

 

[SJRB]

..are you asking if people wear watches?

Nice watch as jewelry. Not an apple watch.

 

[Plies]

I own a couple of Breitling's, only wearing them on special occasions.

My gold chain link bracelet I wear more frequently, though.

[GloveSlap]

Nah, never wore anything for any extended period of time. I have sensitive skin though and it gets chafed easily.

 

[Forsete]

I wear a watch.

 

[p_xavier]

Depends on what my clothes are.

 

[Dacvak]

I don't wear any jewelry. Not a fan, personally.

 

[Lunarorbit]

Like bracers?

 

[ReBurn]

I don't wear jewelry of any kind. I'm not into showy stuff.

 

[HRK69]

Get these nylon sleeves

It's better than jewelry

 

[Rockondevil]

I wear a smart watch but other than that I'd never wear jewellery.

 

[Braag]

I have a Seiko turtle as my everyday beater watch. I'm so used to it now that I feel annoyed if I happen to forget to wear it, cause I'm used to looking at time from my wrist. Once you get used to it, it's like underwear, can't go without it.

You sound poor and mad.

You don't have experience of the fine culture of England. This is something I'd say to me grandma when joking about

 

[rm082e]

The best arm jewelry is a big set of guns.

 

[Punished Miku]

Why can't we sound poor and mad?

[Kacho]

I wear a watch and my wedding ring.

 

[TheGrat1]

I do not consider a watch (even a gold/silver/platinum one) that does not have jewels in it to be jewelry. It is a timepiece that serves a function for me.

 

[newtypepilot]

OP trying to get us to be his bracelet buddies.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Yeah, this. You don't need jewellery, you don't need fashion. You will look better in plain black t-shirt than 99% of population.

I thought tbbt made that shit up but they are an actual thing apparently...

 

[Baemono]

Nice watch as jewelry. Not an apple watch.

So a watch then.

No one ever think of "apple watch" when you say "watch"

It probably varies from country to country, when it comes to watches here, it's mostly about Apple watches or some other sports watches. Normal watches are quite rare.

Okay now I understand more the game State of Decay

 

[killatopak]

I'm wearing a silver bracelet right now.

I dip it in my coffee to test for poison.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I've always enjoyed a nice watch. Not a smart watch.

 

[Hideous Snake]

Yes, especially on occasions. Wedding, meetings..etc

 

[GymWolf]

I don't like to have anything on my forearms\wrist, i stopped wearing watches when i was like 15.

I can very rarely wear a bracelet if the occasion call for it.

 

[Trogdor1123]

No jewelry. Should be functional first, factor second. In those cases I dont consider it to be jewelry

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

If I am going to wear a watch it better:
1) Have all access to all my money
2) Let me know when I have email
3) Give me step by step directions to the icecream shop 50 feet away
4) Tell me my blood glucoses is "CRITICALLY HIGH" after said ice cream shop visit
5) Remind me to meditate after it notices how abnormally high my heart rate is...also after said visit to the icecream shop.

If I wanted to know the time I would just look at my phone...wtf you casio wearing weirdos.
(the sweat is also from the icecream shop visit...I would eat a L O T of ice cream and it would be a physical activity...which my watch should give me credit for)

A proper watch is absolutely ok. A giant gaudy Invicta....well, to each their own.

A SINGLE gold bracelet or something, also kind of ok, especially if you are hairy, tanned, on the beach, and preferably in the mafia.

Any kind of beaded bracelet, UNLESS it was made for you by your daughter, is a hard no go.

And then there is this.....unless you are a hippy pirate, FUCK NO!

Acceptible ONLY when going a viking...

and maybe after a year or 2 of bicep curls and tricep presses

 

[IDKFA]

This. The watch complements the outfit.

I'll pick out my watch for the day depending on what I'm wearing.

 

[El Muerto]

I dont wear anything on my wrists. My watches get banged up because i work on stuff and forget to take them off. Also dont want people eyeing me as a target because they see a pricey watch on my wrist that they can snatch and pawn.

 

[Idleyes]

Indeed, a car's a poor investment. You do realize you're wearing part of my portfolio, right?

 

[Pagusas]

For women yes, for men no, unless you are including watches, which I wouldn't call "Arm Jewelry", I'd call that a wrist accessory.

 

[jason10mm]

The proper response is "wow, but it looks so fake!"

Ostentatious assholes can NEVER get over the implication their baubles can be so easily imitated these days.
