Do you prefer an analog or a digital clock / watch?

Digital alarm clock...analog watch.

Digital! :)

Digital, definitely! They have lots of other cool features besides time like alarms, stop-watch, countdown timers. . . some can even hold phone numbers or act as calculators. Digital watches are much more useful than watches that only tell time. Plus they often say the month, day, year, and day of the week. My watch automatically adjusts for daylight savings. I think eventually we'll be using watches as cell phones, pagers, and small computers with internet capabilities. I hope i see the day.

Neither really. But I always visualize an analog clock even if the time is digital.

I like the old fashioned clock dial with a second hand that lurches around the number.

Analog. That's what I'm used to.

Doesn't matter to me. My favorite watch ever is this Texas Instruments one of my grandpa's (a chip broke, so it doesn't work anymore). You pushed a button on the side, and the numbers lit up in red. Everybody always thought my watch was broken because you had to  push the button. Only now it really is broken, which is a simple irony.

I prefer analog watches and clocks. I see 8:50 and think that I have plenty of time before I have to leave at 9:00.

I like analog cause I can't figure out how to use a digital watch. But I never wear a watch. My cell phone, car & work has a clock that is what I use.

Digital. I'm lazy.

Digital all the way.

Keri-Jade, 21

Analog. Maybe I'm old fashioned.

Unless it's in a car a clock for the sake of a clock should be analog.

I like the looks of an analog clock/watch much better.

Kevin, 33

Digital is more convenient, but I prefer the look of analog clocks for wall clocks and other prominent clocks, and analog watches are classier to me.

Katie, 25

, FL   USA

I don't mind either. I have an analog watch, but it's a mixture in my house.

Tracy, 24
Ocean City
, NJ  USA

The only watch I ever wear is a pendant, and I find an analog one more decorative. If the clock is primarily functional, for example, on my bedside table, then I will choose digital.

Jane, 62

I prefer digital as far as looking at it in a hurry but to wear as a wrist watch I prefer analog. Digital watches are so geeky.

Stephanie, 25
TX  USA

Analog. I love the ticking of a watch. Makes me remember how precious time is.

Nicci, 27

I prefer telling the time by watching the sky. Since that is not particularly practical, I have a watch set to two time zones...One DC time, one Alaska time...that is my small concession to society...to wear a watch...

It doesn't really matter which kind but if I had to choose it would be a digital clock I suppose.

Kyle, 16

Analog - telling time is becoming a lost art! Besides, I think that analog clocks and watches are much more attractive than digital ones.

analog

Analog. They're nicer looking, plus I had a lot of trouble learning how to tell time when I was a kid, so I feel like I should keep practicing.

Cancer, 20

Analog just for my watch and telling time. Digital for work, when doing lab experiments and seconds can be crucial.

Triana, 29
Austin

analog.

Christina

Analog watches are better looking and just as simple to read.

Johanna, 18
OK  USA

I really could care less which kind it is as long as it keeps time properly.

Doug2, 29

No real preference, although I never wear a watch. Too confining for my tastes, both in a physical and mental mannor.
