Wrist watches. Extremely convenient, even when your phone is buried or you don't want to be distracted.

Yep. And it doesn't need to be charged every night like apple watch or similar.

Am looking for a new one if you have any recommendations.

I have one that uses the gaps between chain links to form a 7-segment display and it's dope.

I wear a cheapish waterproof one while swimming. The pool has a clock but I can't see it without my specs.

Yep plus if you take your phone out you leave yourself vulnerable to being robbed.

  • for the wristwatch, if you wear a 10$ casio people will think you’re poor

Oooh nice one. Bonus points if it's a dirty strap.
