What the heck; it beats all those Talking time 1's we used to hear in the
early 1980's. What I'd give to have a new one!

I suppose it's no different than an LDP glancing at a clock on the wall.
Still, when I'm in a meeting, and I want to know the time, I fish my
earpiece out of my pocket and get the time from my phone.  I'm not sure what
the people around me think I'm doing, but then again, it's not all that
important to me.

Well, as I said in my post, these were all braille watches, in fact it was
before there was such a thing as a talking watch.
Whether braille or talking, it really isn't rudeness, just the fact that in
order to check the time publicly, it involves some kind of sound, as minnute
as a click or as disturbing as a robotic voice. This could have been a
conference full of sighted people, doing the same thing and nobody else in
the room would have been any the wiser. Just the way life goes, so don't be
too hard on the clicking braille watches. Lol!
