For people that actually work with their hands and tools, it’s much easier to rotate your wrist to see what time it is rather than putting down a tool, cleaning off your hands, then digging in your pocket or carrier then pushing a button to see what time it is. If you’re just sitting at a desk and your hands are clean and usually not holding or operating sometimes heavy tools you may have a point.

It could be the women are owed ‘money for services’ and this is a convenient way to reimburse them.

They made it worse. The characters are more cartoony.
Also, the computer play mode is pretty bad, and the computer has a very limited number of setups, but it is still a way to pass time when waiting for something/someone.

I have a number of expensive Swiss watches (e.g., Rolex, Breitling), but I haven’t worn them a single day since I got my first Apple Watch. By the way, I have an analog clock face on my Apple Watch—try it, you might like it.

And if they have insurance, it’s like “FREE”!

Yes, Gypsies. This is what they do, this is how they survive. No other skill except an almost magical way of robbing people.

Gypsies was my first thought too. I’ve seen them operate in Europe and this is very typical.

Yes, Gypsies. This is what they do, this is how they survive. No other skill except an almost magical way of robbing people. Had a port visit to Naples, Italy. My buddy and I get some money exchanged at the Camino (money exchange ) . out in town. Group of 8-10 “street urchins” of various ages probably from 4-15 and a Adult ring leader. They swarmed my friend, I kept walking, telling him, “Don’t stop, keep going !” Nope, he learned the hard way. One of them managed to put their hand in his front pocket and relieve him of the $50 in Lira that he had just exchanged.

2 Seiko 5’s also. The gold-plated one sits in a drawer.
When I grew up, all watches were mechanical. The automatic was an ideal I could never afford, before electronic became commonplace.
Dead batteries finally made me find the Seiko automatic, again, and this time I could afford them. Glad they were still around. I expect they may outlive me.
