Just curious, Do you consider watches to be Jewelry, an Accessory, or a Utility?
Obviously, jewelry and accessories can mean the same thing, so I’ll clarify. Jewelry is usually for looks or sentiment, while accessories (belts, ties, etc) typically have a function as well.
Personally, being new in the watch collecting space, my watches are all “Jewelry” for now.
I don’t find myself using them for the time since clocks are everywhere, and I’ve used the ones I’ve bought lately to add a bit of flare to my outfits. Smart watches (definitely a utility) just aren’t pretty enough!
All utility for me. I try to have a conscious separation from tech and screens in general (I work at home in front of the PC all day), so I like to go for walks and do things outside of work without always having my phone on me. So, a watch is still necessary.
