Especially business situations. It comes off as you're more interested in checking in on your instagram feed than what's going on in front of your face. If you rely on your phone for telling time, there will be situations where checking the clock will come off as you being rude.

Yes, but mostly out of habit. Plus, I do like watches, for whatever reason.
