Does this one count if I only wear it on the 12th of each month?

Lovely though that is, I think it's in the Minus One club, so maybe you have none? :)

Technically this one has a full set of Arabic numbers, just not at the same time

I don’t have a single one with all numbers present. A couple with minus one, but by far most with few or no numbers ar all.

Here’s one from the latter category.

It's always a good question to ask a pal. Without looking, how many numbers do you have in your watch? :D

The answer is often zero.
