Question

Why do we call a wrist watch a watch? Shouldn't it be called a wrist clock.
We don't ever say "grandfather watch" or "cookoo watch".
I'm sure there has to be an answer.

Either way I don't wear a watch. The last one I wore was destroyed in a 15 man battle royale in a college dorm room eight years ago. (FYI - A wrestling match I'm sure I won. )
