The final answer is that there is no way of knowing this for sure. There are far too many variables to be able to accurately ascertain how many times a person will look at thier watch.

For instance : do you count looking at just the watch, or any time piece. I personally don't wear a watch, so my number would be zero. If you count any time piece, then you have computer screens, desk phones, cell phones, PDA, bank clocks, car clocks. It would be impossible to determine how many of each of these a person looks at during the day since they are everywhere.

Then you have the person's mentality. Are they anxious or mellow. An anxious person standing in line at Starbucks will look at thier watch more times in a 3 minute period of time, then a mellow person will look at thier watch in the course of the whole day.

So ultimately in one day you can have a person look at thier watch any number of times between 0 and 86,400.

I know this was not the answer you were hoping for, but if you found it helpful, please hit the accept.

Thanks
