I did actually track down and buy a Swatch Metropolis watch. It’s such a peculiar thing. It’s not even the only watch I’ve bought in the last few weeks. I’ve bought three. All analogue. Smartwatches are tool watches and I only need one smartwatch. I already have one. Analogue watches are for disconnected days, for matching to moods and clothes and tasks. I can admire Longines and Breitling and all the luxe watches from a distance, but I like a simple watch, I’ve found. Putting one on is a signal to myself that I’m disconnecting. Just as when I put bracelets on my right wrist instead of the Fitbit, which I’ve been doing for the last month.
