Here’s a hot take for ya.
Watches are stupid and wearing a watch makes you stupid—if you actually think about it.
Not a single watch or clock is ever going to be 100% accurate. They all have deviance ratings. Therefore all watches are stupid.
Wearing a watch allows ones brain to no longer rely on it’s natural timing ability, so therefore wearing a watch makes one stupid.
Chew on that one, nerds.
Happy day, Crunchers.

Not the fanciest of collections. Just an amateur enthusiast, with a little interest in some things EDC as well. And tennis. And F1. And nature. And science.

True story. Pretty sure he was balls deep in Grizzly Bears fighting his way towards the promised land when he said this.
I agree.
That's why you need titanium.
Titanium makes you're brain bigger.

Especially when sprinkled over ones favorite salad.
Mmmm! Yummy! Have chewed and digested that - turns out I’m perfectly alright with being stupid and happy!

Just because perfection is not achievable does not mean we should not aim for perfection.
The argument hinges on there being a perfect time. Please explain what that is.
I do agree that anyone reading the original post is a nerd.
It can't be more stupid than wearing a Smartwatch.
Natural timing ability?!?!
That’s…
Yeah, you got it 🤥

Perfect time = No time
Wearing a watch only makes you stupid if you actually use it to tell the time.
"Andy Warhol understood that watches were not only utilitarian mechanical devices whose function it was to tell the time, but also symbols of poetry and desire. For Warhol, a watch’s real purpose was to evoke sex appeal and glamour."
We all just here evoking our sex appeal.

Oh beeee-have….!
I have made this argument before, and many did vote for the Apple Watch over the Hublot…
I have a watch to discourage natural timing disabilities around me. Stop being late. My time is as important as yours so get a watch and join the asylum.
I have to admit that my watches are rarely even set to the correct time I rather wear them for fun.
But we like wearing jewelry.

I probably remember to set them within +/- 5 minutes 75% of the time, but never the date.

…but they’re called smart watches, how could that possibly let me down? It’s like instantly wearing twenty IQ points on my wrist.
I'm better at guessing the time now then I was back when I didn't wear a watch 🤔
I don't need them to tell time...they are pets.
