Does anyone wear a watch?

Casio G-Shock with a wet suit, but the band won't fit around my wrist when wearing a dry suit. Theoretically its a backup bottom timer. Its my all-the-timer every day watch, and I like to wear it all the time for a quick glance at the time.

Always and it have saved my dive and the following two dives the same day as my computer died..
I wear a Citizen promaster Select Your Country | Citizen Watch - English (UK)Citizen Watch.
I have however replaced the rubber band (which last for 6 months to a year before it start cracking up) for a NATO band.

I've pretty much stopped wearing a watch. Not comfortable. However, when on vacation, oddly enough, I'll wear a Casio just to be sure I don't miss the boat or other fun events. I don't use it as part of my diving kit, it's just along for the ride.

I used to wear a Citizens Aqualand. It has a depth gauge. Saved the day one trip when my computer crapped out. It was a good exercise to use tables again. (I can't believe that some agencies don't teach tables. Like teaching someone to fly without explaining why control surfaces work IMO.)
Now I dive with 2 computers. One of which I wear as a watch on a somewhat daily basis. Like today. I have one watch in the shop and two in need of batteries.

I wear a Citizen JV0030-19 Eco-Drive Aqualand. It serves as a backup since it shows dive time, depth and has depth and ascent speed warnings. It's also easier to check than my computer for seeing where I am in my surface interval.

Formally, no. But my backup computer, a Suunto Stinger, functions as a watch when I'm topside. It sure looks like a watch...

 

[Scubagolf]

No. Computer on my right wrist; small SPG clipped off to a d-ring on my left chest; compass on my left wrist.

I have been wearing the same $25 Casio watch as a bottom timer for 10+ years. I've had to replace the band twice.

It would be retarded to spend any more than that on a dive watch.

Just wear a Suunto D4, as my dive computer and on land. I always wear a watch while not diving, but wear my dive computer instead on trips. I do have a backup computer, as I am often partake in multiple dive days.

Any cheap water resistant watch with a backlight will do.

Agreed. I carry a $15 Timex from their "1440 Sports" series as a backup bottom timer.
