[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...)

Is there an option for digital? I don't really do smart watches, but I have a bunch of G-Shocks, (digi and ana-digi), sundry other Casios and a '70s Accurist LED.

As for analogs, I wear a Tag Monaco, Rolex Oyster Perpetual Milgauss, Omega Seamaster, Tissot PRC200, Citizen Eco Drive GMT, Seiko SNK, Timex Mk. 1 Chrono, and a Sugess Top Time Deus homage.

I'm 31, I have a Fitbit, but I only use it when I'm working out or playing tennis. My phone is always going off, I don't need my wrist buzzing as well. Besides, if ever a notification comes up that needs dealt with, I'll do it on my phone. I prefer the look of a dedicated watch, and a smartwatch is just another thing to forget to charge, at the end of the day.
