Title: Wearing watches on both hands?
Post by: dpkong on December 16, 2020, 06:42:10 PM

In this era of the smartwatch which does everything from telling time, alarm functions and giving notifications to monitoring health. Would you wear a smartwatch or band on one hand and a timepiece on the other?

What do you think of people who do that?

I used to scoff at people like that, but ended up being one myself. Hey man, gotta hit those step counts, yet not render mechanical watches obsolete.

Personally, I had that conflict too when I had my smart watch, but reverted back to mechanical watch most of the time, and only use my smart watch for walks/jogs and golf.

Wearing 2 is only going to make me more clumsy! That’s just me tho

There's a smart "tag" (not consider as watch since the device only counts the heartbeat, steps etc) just only for fitness and doesn't looks like a watch more like a bangles. I think this one is more appropriate to be wear together with the watch.

I've met someone previously wear the mechanical watch in both hands. He justify that he don't want to lost track on his hometown time. I've no comment on this.   :shocked1:

I personally do not wear smartwatches and I do not have the urge to buy one so far since its inception. When I do see others wearing two timepieces, somehow i always think that wearing two devices is born out of a need and didn't give further thought than that.

Would it also feel weird or stupid if you had a watch on one hand and a 100g gold bracelet on the other?

I personally believe that when comes to wearing two watches (aka schwarzkopf), it could boil down to

1. Practical reason - monitoring two or three diff time zone or atmospheric pressure or heart rate or something
2. Flex - You have two wrist, why not have two watches?
3. Sentimental reason - Lucky watch or a watch that was given by a special someone...

However, for me, I am neither in those three category, so I will stick to one watch only.  :)
