When I’m at home, where I have a giant-numbers clock that I can see from my pillow, I always put my watch on the dresser. When I’m on the road, I always leave it on my wrist so I can see what time it is. This used to work very well when I was younger and my mind more adaptive. Up until February, I was w/ Earl on that. I have no idea how I’ll do next time I’m out and about after more than a year. Looks like trouble…
I can relate, I remember when I was frantically looking for my glasses and couldn’t find them anywhere until someone mentioned that they were on my face.
Like looking for glasses that are on top of your head . Main reason for wearing a watch it’s a pain in the butt to pull out your phone to check the time ;-)
He is retired and likely will not leave the house so unless he has an doctor’s appointment why does he need a wristwatch? Time is so unimportant that I do not see an alarm clock on either nightstand.
Earl your memory is bad. For my hubby, he wears his wrist watch all the time including bed. For me no, I take wedding ring, wrist watch off, and glasses off on my dresser at bed time. Morning my glasses are the last I wear.
I used to wear my wristwatch all the time until my bride convinced me to take it off when I’m going to bed. I’ve pulled an Earl more than once in the past few years.
I wore a cheap Timex digital until I retired in 1998, then I threw it into the garbage. Had a couple of alarms set, wonder if anyone heard them out in the dump. Could not wear any watch or rings at work, so put the watch on a chain I wore inside my clothes, wedding ring stayed in wife’s jewelry box, right next to the Rolex an old E4 sold to me back in 1970 as he wanted to get back in the continuous poker game that a couple of E8s in my unit had set up.

With these fitbits, one is supposed to wear the watch to bed.
