I only wear LED watches. The younger generation all think it is "cool" and want to know where they can get one. They think it is something futuristic even today.
My wife doesn't understand. She doesn't care that I wear them, but thinks the whole collecting part is silly. And like many of you who are married, I don't say anything about the new purse she comes home with every week.
Some people will say, "you mean you have to push that button every time you want to know what time it is? "But the majority of people really don't care one way or the other. They will often say that it looks cool and then never give it another moment of thought.
I'm a bodybuilder, so I am used to getting stared at. People often try to psychoanalyze that too--do you lift weights because you are compensating for some insecurity in your life? Before exercising became popular, total strangers would come up to me and say things that were outright rude. If I made a rude comment back, I would get ?you see, those bodybuilders are all a bunch of bullies?. I learned not to respond to those comments. I stopped caring what others thought of me a long time ago. Whether your hobby is LED watches, or something else, it only matters that you enjoy it.
