[time-nuts] Am I the only Time Nut who doesn't wear a watch?

My comment was a bit tongue in cheek. 
Novelty value only. I'm sure about a day wearing that would be enough for
most mortals.

You'd need one for both wrists and learn to look at the time on alternate
watches or you'll end up with lop sided upper arm muscle growth. Who needs
dumbbells when you can work out just by looking at the time :)

I wonder what the average time for the novelty to wear out is on one of
these.

PS. Well, it is time related.
