I used to wear a stainless-steel link watch with a small shimmery-blue face, which I bought for $5 at a pawn shop while visiting said pawn shop as part of a corporate IT service call. But I stopped maybe 14 years ago, when I started carrying a cell phone with me at all times.

I went through a series of cheap Timexs but on the same Speidel twist-o-flex band which was very comfortable. It was very loose, it could fly off if I snapped my wrist. I only wore it at work, on my left wrist.
I had developed what I assumed was a large ganglion cyst on the back of my left hand and talked to a surgeon about removing it. But he said I'd be out of work six weeks, and the internet(which never lies) told me a 50% chance of coming back, so I skipped it. When I retired I stopped wearing a watch (also savaged my alarm clock) and the cyst disappeared within a month.
