Are you a lady? If no, don't wear a girl's watch. Unless you're also a transvestite, then it's ok.

Even when it is on and with me, it's a heck of a lot easier to glance down at my wrist then pull the phone out of it's holster, unlock it and wake up the screen just to check the time. I actually own several watches - Casio tough solar atomics, a couple of Seiko automatic divers, a Stowa manual wind,...
