    Honestly, how often do you read analog clocks?

    I mean, I learned it as a child, but it’s been probably months since I actually had the need to read an analog clock, and I’m just not used to it anymore. I have to think about it, 20 years ago it was just my spine doing the thinking and it felt effortless.

      Every day? I use an analog watch face on my smartwatch, I have an analog clock in my car, I have another couple at home….

        So what? I don’t.

        I don’t have a smart watch and hardly anybody I know actually owns some analog clock?

        Take a look around you. Where are any analog clocks? Church towers, train stations, old people. That’s pretty much it. Your smartwatch is a choice. You could just as well use a digital watch face. There is literally no benefit in that case - except your personal preference.

          You literally asked “Honestly, how often do you read analog clocks?” and I answered. And then you say “So what?” So why did you even ask if you were gonna turn around and belittle answers?
