I got my first watch for my 10th birthday. It's possible that it had Mickey Mouse on it, which suggests that it wasn't a parental purchase, but nonetheless I remember feeling very grown-up and proud of my new arm adornment.
Since then I've worn a watch most days. Which is a weird slavery, when you come to think about it. (I don't usually wear one at the moment, however, it gets in the way of the typing and why do I need to know the time?)
But I do love watches. Herself gave me a lovely Swiss Army watch for our first Christmas, which I didn't take off until it left black marks all over my arm from sheer filth. Charming. So it needs a new bracelet which I have yet to organize.
My dream watch? A Cartier Tank Francaise. I will never be the kind of woman who can wear one of those, so I'll settle for a classic Rolex Oyster Perpetual.
I notice watches on other people. Your watch tells me a lot about you, and I will be judging you on it, so choose carefully and expect to answer questions.
