get an analog watch/clock. It's amazing. For real you don't know what you're missing until you have one

This message brought to you by Big Analog Watch/Clock.

I like big clocks and I cannot lie, all you other brothers can't deny

When a clock walks in with an itty-bitty bezel and a long minute hand you get sprung!

So you don't know what time it is and never feel guilty about procrastinating?

The opposite, I can at a glance tell how much time has passed and how much time I have left in a very visual way. The hands are a much easier way to interpret passage of time than some digits. And like the OP points out, it doesnt really matter if its 6:00 or 6:05, but I can see how much I've already procrastinated and how much I have left to do The Thing.

I'm genuinely suggesting this, it has made a difference for me.

I've been using mine wrong, I use my analog watch as a mouse bed so I won't appear away in teams. Lol

Oh don't worry I'm suggesting this for important things, not work.

Will analog watches soon be like VHS tapes and cursive handwriting?
