I gave up wearing a watch 20 years ago when my last mechanical Timex
failed and I couldn't find a replacement that wasn't electronic.  That
at last brought to my attention a cultural difference between the US
and Canada that hadn't registered before: In the (urban) US, there are
(or were, the last time I was there) clocks everywhere.  Most
businesses have a plainly visible clock.  There are clocks on the
streets.  Not so in (my small part of) Canada.  The local town clock
on the Post Office failed 6 or so decades ago. One of my neighbors
bought the works and set it up in his dooryard while the PO replaced
the mechanical works with an electric thingy.  When that failed, there
was no longer a publicly visible clock in town.  A decade ago, a local
mall operator added a flashy electronic sign to an already dangerous
intersection that shows (intermitently, between the ads) the time,
further endangering after-dark pedestrians.  My local branch bank
manager was bemused -- concerned, I think, that I had some tedious
crackpot complaint to make -- when I asked if it were bank policy not
to have a visible clock behind the tellers. (He didn't know the
answer.)  Only our local, large but family-run hardware store has a
clock in plain sight.  Huh.

Recently, someone gave me (what I took to be) an better than average
quality Chinese knock-off of some prestige-marque watch, fully
mechanical, in return for a favour. But its self-winder wasn't reliable
and it was so much trouble to select the right winder-stem mode and
reset it that I gave it back.

Oh, well, except for days when I have to see the dentist, I don't have
to know what time it is more accurately than I can learn from the sun,
even on a overcast day.
