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!
Given the availability of the time in our phones, computers, etc I’d say watches are an accessory/jewelry (kinda the same thing imo).
I say that as someone who wears a watch with the specific goal of looking at my phone less often.
