Why I started wearing a wristwatch again after years of not doing this

I was visiting my sister-in-law and her husband in Michigan last month. My father-in-law died in 2014 and my mother-in-law earlier this year, and my wife and my sister were going through some of their effects. This included a Timex Indiglo, which had belonged to my father-in-law:

It was still running ... and keeping nearly perfect time!

And ... I had just missed an Amtrak train from not having the time easily glanceable on my wrist, so ... I"m getting used to this again.

It "takes a licking and keeps on ticking" indeed ...
