It's more for programming when to brew coffee in the morning than for telling time. Then you can wake up and get coffee without having to think about it. Not that it's hard, but I'm sure removing that one little task makes many people's mornings a lot easier.

It's also good for avoiding heart palpitations when you need to be on time for something and glance at the stove/microwave.

Fair. I know I'm in the minority of people who feels they need a watch and constantly checks it, so anything other than the device on my wrist is just extra. Since I was a kid I've felt lost if I wasn't wearing one.

Only watch i ever wore was a calculator watch. I lost it quickly, and my parents wouldn't get me so much as a slap bracelet after that. So never wore a watch.

I have no sense of time, so I need a clock strapped to my arm.
