mechanical wristwatch

A wristwatch would be cool since we have daytimes. :) Would help me to know when the sun goes up and down.

nice idea. would also be a great alternative if you have no compass. if this would work ingame, not sure about that.

I thought watches were coming?

Although having a digital versus mechanical wristwatch would be cool if only for style and preference. Batteries really wouldn't matter - I have a digital one and it hasn't run out of batteries in almost two years.

Why not both of a kind? One mechanical and one digital version.

I agree,they shouldn't force players to change their batteries in order to function.

Yeh, that was what I said. It ends up based on personal preference. Item condition, too. Damaged mechanical wristwatches might be off entirely while digitals may just be cracked. Reliability or something.

You mean "analogical", not mechanical, I think... Mechanical would be the sort which functions without a battery, by winding the spring.

 

Also having the later, actual windable mechanical watch in the game would be crazy-irritating. Therefore a must have!

Watches are a must and will be in the final game.

 

Yes they will also be able to be used to navigate... as long as you have shadows switched on lol

It would be nice to be able to find broken watches that show the wrong time and you should also be able to change the time on the watch (if it's working properly).  I'd probably just put the wrong times on all the watches I find then just leave them on the ground for someone else to find just to annoy/confuse them.
