I'm about the same. It's also replaced a notepad and planner, camera, video recorder, ccomputer and a bunch of other stuff. but yes the reason I don't have a watch on is because I have a cell phone.

Rarely.
I work in TV and we have atomic clocks all over the place with the "right" time. Computers also sync and are accurate.
I could get an atomic watch, but never got around to it.
My watch broke and I discarded it because I never used it, and it was always less accurate.
My cell phone has the "right" time but I keep it in a coat pocket and it's not very accessible.

No, but I am almost old. 61 yr.
I have a kinetic Seiko watch, I leave it on 100% of the time, swimming, shower, etc. Never needs a battery (7 years) and always shows me the correct time.

Never. A watch just isn't about time for some people. The less contact i have with a cell phone the better.
I have the phone out of necessity otherwise i could care less about the thing and even less about a smart phone.

Don't have a cellphone and don't want one. I'm usually not alone and everyone with me has one. If I really need to make a call, I can borrow one. There are 7 clocks in the house not counting the ones on each of 5 cordless handsets, a clock on each computer screen and a clock in the car. What do I need a watch for?

I have always worn a watch.
Regardless of whether it is one of my cheap/beater Casios or one of my dress Seikos, I like the feel of having something on my left wrist and feel awkward if nothing is there.
I keep my cellphone on my belt. It is a hassle to keep pulling it in/out of the case.
Very simple to just look at my wrist.

Replaced, no. I still use a dedicated alarm clock also.
I don't wear a watch much, if I do it is a Lumi Nox "tactical" tritium watch. It goes well with my neck knife, my paracord bracelet and my holster.

Nope. I am in my late 60's so I cannot give up the watch. Been wearing one all my life and it is just part of dressing in the morning. Also I would be lost without my pocket knife. But my kids use their phones for everything and I have never seen them with a watch on the last several years. I carry a cell phone for emergency or for the kids to contact me if I am out, but thats it.
No. Analog watch all the way. I like knowing what time it is with a glance. It's much more convenient if you're in a meeting, out doing something active, or...changing your oil.
