I predominantly wear my Ultra (and previous Apple watches) as I’ve grown so used to the features and functionality in daily life.

However I do own other watches like quite a few G-shocks and Casio Edifice and I’m sometimes tempted to wear them but usually revert back to my apple watch out of convenience (living in Japan the Apple watch is essential for transit and electronic payments.)

Do you guys ever wear other watches and if so what are they and under what situation would you wear them over your Apple watch?

    Not really, I have a few citizens, seiko’s and a few Invicta’s But I like all the tracking & other stuff to not wear it. I always tell myself I’m going to wear my “nicer” watches (Dressy) when we go out to dinner at a steak house or on a double date but never do.

    Yes. I have a digital fossil watch that has the look of a traditional watch with many of the same features as the Apple Watch I own. Sleek design for fancier outings. Everything else I own is Apple but the fossil watch really knocks it out of the park in the looks department but I wear my Apple Watch daily as it’s more practical and is more seamless with my iPhone.

    Sometimes I’ll wear a little women’s Casio on my other wrist because it looks cute, but usually with a bunch of other bangles and beads. AW stays on my left wrist through the day, and my right at night.

    I built up an impressive collection of watches over the years (lost count after 35) ranging from fashion watches to quality timepieces and since going AW two years ago have literally never strapped one on. Can’t even give them away.

    Over several decades I built a very nice collection of higher end watches which now sit looking at me forlorn for being neglected. But for formal occasions or others where, for me, an analog watch is more appropriate. Otherwise, yes, the AW lives on my wrist.

    I have a Rolex that I wore every day for 15+ years until I got my first AW earlier this year. I wear the AW every day now, but will wear the Rolex to a big meeting, nice restaurant, or a party/function. But my interest in other watches has increased recently, and I expect that I’ll be buying other mechanical watches to mix in the rotation. I also bought quite a few nice bands for the AW to give it different looks and dress it up or down.

    I’m that weirdo that wears an Apple Watch on the right, for health tracking, and a regular watch on the left because I like the ‘old fashioned’ mechanics of it. And because they’re a thousand times prettier than that black square on the other wrist.

    Sometimes people ask me about it, when I explain it they shrug and go on with their day.

    I have a dress watch my dad left me when he passed. I wear it sometimes on my dominant hand. Always wear the Apple Watch, though.

    I wear AW every day, but wen I go out hiking, running or MTB I put Apple Watch on charger and take my Suunto with me.

    I wore GShocks daily up until last week when I got my first AW. I switched over to Apple from Android back in August and have enjoyed the experience. I was familiar with apple as my work phone is a 12 but never really dove deep until recently. I’m not sure if I’ll ever throw a ‘regular’ watch on again or will I 🤔
