    Just wondering what the done thing is. Should you wear a watch or not?

    I personally don’t because I find it a nuisance whilst getting changed into and out of kit. Also, if you fall off, it will probably get smashed.

    What does everyone else do?

    I used to wear one with a HRM but have changed to a GPS unit so don’t have to anymore. Back to the question its a personal choice i don’t know of anyone who would give you grief either way. The weight saving nuts might have something else to say on the matter though 😉

    I stopped wearing a watch because when riding I found that it jiggled around on my wrist, which was annoying.

    And now that I have a cycle computer with GPS time, I don’t need a watch.

    Casio do excellent simple digital ones, that aren’t dinner plate sized. (Honestly, who suits thouse things? Bouncers?).

    I’ve got one of the classic black Casio ones.. but they only suit a certain image if you’re going to wear one day to day-> although obviously its fine if you’re just wearing it for cycling… wouldn’t wear one with arm warmers though… or when racing.
