Apple Watch and Mechanical Watch
Hi everyone, I just joined Crunch. Great to be a part of the community. How do you guys think about Apple Watches vs mechanical? I love mechanical watches but like the data collection smart watches do. Unfortunately, I only have one left wrist. One watch on each wrist feels obnoxious. Any other solutions you guys have considered?

Welcome to WC. This is an age old discussion of what to do with your Apple Watch. Right wrist would be the normal answer. I’d proposed strapping it to your ankle, pick one. Then no one will mess with you as it looks like you just escaped house arrest. 🤣
Have you considered if the Apple Watch is even a watch at all?
Ditch the smartwatch. Unless you are training for a high profile competition, do you REALLY need the data collection?
Plus who wants Big Brother always watching.....😬🤔🥸?
And if you have 2 ankle bracelets, use your imagination
Agreed. Baby steps......😉
Also it's really kinda crotchety, get off my lawn vibes, but I'm REALLY starting to get annoyed when I am talking to someone and they are constantly checking their freaking wrist, while holding a conversation.

Big brother’s got me tethered! 😅If it’s not the watch, it’s the phone. If it’s not the phone it’s the computer.

Sometimes I catch myself doing it and it even annoys me. Glancing down at wristwear is so passive aggressive. Definite high school principal vibes.
Welcome 🙏🏼

@thekris I will remember not to tag you in my Apple “watch” wrist shot. 😂

I’m going with necklace/choker.
Double wristing it. Guys this is your fault! 😀
