A classic, increasingly relevant, tune sung by Ray Stevens.
A lot do, and/or live frugally, however they may not get great crowd name recognition on earth.
Apple took over the watch market.
That was just after they took over smart watches. So they are on top of the watches genre.
They even run an electro-cardiogram and send the PDF to your cardiologist. And the can tell if you’ve slipped, fallen and attempt to make sure you are back on your feet with accelerometer.
If you do you revive, the watch notifies emergency services and your emergency contact.
I have a Timex Ironman that I’ve been wearing for 25 years or more that just keeps on digitizing. Replaced the band several times as well as the battery. Thanks to the internet, I’ve been able to find replacement bands since the watch has long since been discontinued......
I need the watch to tell me what day it is.......
The reaction of the healed-and-saved to Jesus was often of copious gratitude. A wealthy man might be moved to bestow, not just a Rolex, but all his jewelry on Jesus. Now, what would Jesus do with it? Whatever He did, it would be to glorify the Father.

Mortal preachers might need to do that. Jesus could put His walk-on-water power on his garments and it would be like those commercials for extreme waterproofing treatments.
The list is too long of TV preachers that this applies to.
The temptation to live large once a following is had would be intense. At best this would dumb down the gospel. It’s about riches that transcend this world. The preacher who physically lives frugally while putting his earthly resources to the best investments in gaining and edifying souls that he can, is the one who will be most blessed.
“Does anybody really know what time it is?”
Jesus always knows what time it is, where or when ever He is.
So, Jesus would not wear any watch. Probably irritate his nail scar.
It’s all too easy to fall into it. Even some of the greatest integrity we know aren’t visibly frugal.
Jesus might be told by the Father what time to have His presence in.
Another product I wonder about is the portable radio. I probably use my phone as a radio more than anything else., even in the car when there are limited broadcast stations with anything I care to listen to.
I wear a Timex wristwatch. In fact I have 4 Timex wristwatches for a variety of occasions. They take a licking and keep on ticking.....
If Jesus wanted song and His people weren’t doing it, He would just say something like “Tweet! Gabriel, I need you” and the angels would be playing and singing.

All fine, but can they take care of all the billing?
whatever for? the concept of time measured in seconds, minutes, and hours had not yet been invented
I don’t think that Jesus needed a watch to tell the time.
Maybe the watch has a medical insurance app.
That, I believe, is a certainty.
