With all the new nav systems, do they even post watch like that anymore?

I am asking an honest question. My family was always Army, so I have no idea of how ships are handled.

Have been out of our Navy since 1994. I believe they still stand two officers and five enlisted on bridge watch. CIC should have one officer and 4 or 5 enlisted. Some watch slots like QMOW and lee helm may have gone away due to technology. Maybe someone that has sailed one of these DDGs can give you a more up to date answer to your question.
