Given the era we live in, a smartphone can do everything starting from building an important network to giving us weather updates. This is why, many of us are of the opinion that, when with a smartphone we can do so many things, including checking the time, then why should one again wear a wristwatch? Very correct! But still a timepiece has its own charm. Well, in this blog, today we will see the 12 ultimate benefits that a wristwatch can offer to the smartphone society.
1. Convenient:
The best and the foremost benefit of a wrist watch is the reason why it was invented, to tell the TIME. Now, as I have already mentioned above, many may say that wearing a timepiece is not actually necessary when a smartphone already exists. However, when you wear one and someone enquires about the time, you just have to slip your wrist to answer him/her. You neither have to dig into your handbag or pocket in search of the smartphone nor is any finger scanner required to turn on the phone.
2. No Distraction:
With a wristwatch, we only note the time, whenever required, and then get back to whatever we were doing. It is nothing like a smartphone, where we easily get distracted with updates and online games.
3. Good Investment:
It might sound weird but it is true that a wristwatch can fetch you value. For example, you possess an antique timepiece, and one day due for some reason you plan to sell it off. Then that small piece of the tool will definitely bring you more money than with what it was bought.
4. Symbol of Adulthood:
Wristwatches still act as the most common gift for boys who have reached adulthood. The timepiece can simply mean that one is matured enough to create memories and become more responsible.
5. Receive Compliment:
When you choose the right wristwatch for you, it will not only enhance your personality but will as well fetch you compliments, as you will catch everyone’s attention.
6. Autonomy:
Unlike smartphones and smartwatches, wristwatches needn’t be charged daily or frequently. They are engineered with incredible autonomy, which proves very helpful in certain professions and situations.
7. Social Status:
Unlike the fashion watches, wearing a luxury wristwatch is always about societal status because not everyone can afford brands such as Rolex, Jaeger-LeCoultre, IWC, or Ulysse Nardin. Furthermore, despite being expensive, these timepieces will never lose their authenticity, no matter what trends may come.
8. Safety:
Pulling out one’s smartphone everywhere, to read the time may not be safe. What if the phone falls down accidentally and breaks? Or what if one forgets to put the smartphone back in the handbag and loses it? However, nothing of such type will happen with a wristwatch as it will stay tied to one’s wrist.
9. Emotional Value:
Many a time, timepieces come attached with emotional value – defining a specific phase in life, a particular gift from someone close to the heart, marks special milestones such as graduations, weddings and etc. In some families, watches are passed along from one generation to the next.
10. Acts as Ice Breaker:
If in a pub or a park, you notice someone very attractive and wish to speak with him/her, you can simply start the conversation by asking what time it is (provided the person wears a wristwatch). From there on you can carry forward your talks.
11. Punctuality:
As per studies and researches, it has been found out that watch wearers are more punctual and time conscious compared to those with bare wrists.
12. Mobility:
Irrespective of situation and location, a wristwatch is the most easily carried tool one can possess. One just has to wear it on the wrist and move around, it will never cease to show the right time.
