“Virtually everything we look at has the time one it, including the phone we keep on us at all times. Why WEAR something that displays the time?”
People wear watches for reasons other than telling time. They will pay a lot of money for those reasons.
....But not many people.
I’m talking about your average, every day user that really has no need for a watch anymore. In 50 years, the concept of a watch will be somewhat of a novelty item. To me, they already are.(haven’t worn one since I was a child)
