I know we cover this from time to time, but umpires should not wear watches for a couple of reasons. Coaches will wonder if you have a date, it looks bad when your skin is not tanned there, if you get injured it might be in the way and YOU COULD BREAK IT! "Time, the ball deflected off my watch and we have to pick up some pieces of metal, and crystal from the dish area." Oops...
I know of a guy who buys the cheapest Casio digital watch at the startof each season. It's really thin and he sticks it to the back of indiclickercounter. No one can see whether he is glancing at the count or the time. It was a neat trick and it looks better than fishing the watch out of the pocket or ball bag. It also helps those of you who are required to carry a watch out there for time limit games.
