No.

I have no need to know the time while asleep.

I never used to, until my kids were born.

I had to keep an eye on the time when feeding and then tucking them in after making sure they were in deep sleep.

We never turned the lights on so we could establish a night routine for them. My youngest is 1 and a half, so I don't think this habit will cease until she's a bit older.

Same for me. I used to wear my Luminox at night for the better visibility, back when it was three or four times a night. The little guy doesn't wake up near as often as he used to, so nowadays I wear my Explorer.

Always have a watch on except in the shower or when specific training or other work functions require a sterile wrist.

I've getting to a point in my life were I don't feel like I ever need to be without a watch, first of all I don't like the naked feeling on my wrist, and if I wake up in the middle of the night it's easier to check my wrist then to fumble all around for my phone and maybe waking my wife up in the process.

Nope. A cell phone is easier to see in pure darkness and right next to me (my alarm). I'm a picky sleeper so every accessory comes off except the wedding ring, unlike my wife that can sleep with a gold chain on.

Not at home. When I travel, I generally do.
I'm sure everyone has at least once experienced the joker tripping the fire alarm in the middle of the night. If you need to leave your room, you don't want to inadvertently leave any valuables behind.

Whatever watch in the rotation I'm wearing stays on my wrist just about all the time...sleeping, showering, working in the yard, etc. The only time it comes off is when working out. I don't like the feel of something on my wrists then, and it wouldn't jive with powerlifting wrist wraps anyway. Plus being around all the heavy, sharp edged weight plates seems like a disaster waiting to happen. But that's the only time it's ever off my wrist...it goes right back on as soon as I'm back in the car after my workout.

No. I take my watch off when I get back home and never wear mine at home. No need.

I don't. And I don't necessarily put it on first thing in the morning. In fact, now that I think about it I normally don't wear one around the house at all. It usually goes on the wrist just like my wallet and cell phone go in my pocket, when I'm leaving the house. When I get home they all come off my person. I simply have no need for it at home since between the cable boxes, cell phone, and clocks I am pretty much always within sight of the time at home.
