Watches

My Gshock is utility, others are more accessory and jewelry.

All of the above. Utility is high on the list though. I don’t like checking time on a phone when I’m out.

I have started wearing an analog watch to diminish how often I touch my phone and get roped into more than checking the time. They are also nice jewelry, but function first.

Utility while at work, jewelry when not at work. (No phone allowed at work)

I think of the three options you provided, it’s an accessory. IMO the beauty of watches is that it’s something now so readily available (time), that can mechanically be so complicated to create that is shared amongst the world.

Accessory / utility but i like the look of steel so maybe a little bit jewelry. So there, all of the above.

Utility first. I wouldn’t wear it if I didn’t use it. I don’t wear anything else. No rings bracelets necklaces.

For me, an accessory.

Transition from looking at the time on my phone to looking at my watch was a process, but now I often end up looking at my naked wrist. I probably wear a watch around 3/4 or more of my waking hours, either a smart watch during sport or a "watch watch" the rest of the time.

Great analogy btw with the belt!

Both

Jewelry.

Bro nobody can say it's a utility with a straight face

I don't personally see the difference between jewelry and accessory

I'm a nurse and a medic before that. I need a watch with a second hand to take vital signs.

For me it's half accessory, half utility. I take the bus a lot so it's convenient to have the time right there on my wrist.
