Readability is not a problem at all, and often, the numbers seem to have a slight shade of whatever color from the reflective light on it is. I am glad I didn't fall for the low readability lie, this pic convinced me it was bs:

Why do you need a watch if you already carry a phone

There's lots of situations, at work for example, or the rain. It's also a nice stealthy way to figure out how long somebody has been telling you a story.

> Why do you need a watch if you already carry a phone

It's much easier to just glance at your wrist than dig the phone out of your pocket and press the button to wake it up. It also serves as an item of jewellery that you can express yourself with to a certain extent (color, style, materials, etc). Some people actually assemble collections of several such timepieces, so that they can wear them when they want to.

That being said I really don't understand the insane G Shocks that sell for like $5,000. Who the fuck pays five grand for a digital watch????

"Clinton shook things up by wearing a Timex Ironman digital watch as President. Newsweek described it as "techno-nerd." Clinton even went so far as to wear it to his inaugural ball in 1993, leading the Washington Post Style section to call it "an unsightly blemish" and a "wrist gargoyle." The watch also apparently offended many timepiece-loving Europeans. Clinton has since donated one of his early Ironman watches to the Smithsonian Institution, where is is part of the National Museum of American History's presidential collection."

Apparently it's a real "thing" that people spend too much of their money on watches, like addiction or something.

What about a petite and retro slide-up phone, or even a chocolate bar configuration?

Tbf a G-Shock will have way better resale value than a smartwatch
