[Question] Analog watch or smart watch? which do you use? (alien.top)

What is your age? and which watch type do you prefer and use? why?

Do you ever feel like a smart watch is distracting? (when working for example. Notifications, messages, social media and so on...)

Given this sub is dedicated to traditional watches, your answers are going to be very heavily biased towards traditional watches - ask the same question in a smartwatch based sub and I don't doubt you will find a similar bias in that direction.

Personally, I wear traditional (primarily mechanical, but some quartz in both analog and digital) watches.

Currently I have no real in interest in smartwatches - they are a gadget I just don't personally see a big appeal in, so haven't tried.

Alongside that, as someone with an interest in watches anyway, I enjoy the watches I currently wear, and don't really want to swap them out for something else.

The one feature I do like the sound of is access to Google maps on my wrist, but the rest I am happier just using a phone for.
