Okay, I don't chime in much here, but feel kind of strongly about this.

I really, really, really prefer using a tactile watch in any kind of a
business or social setting. It's quiet, announces nothing and lets me
discretely check the time. With the exception of clocks in my own home,
where I and my family can decide what's disruptive and what is not, and when
speech will occur, I'm bugged if the clock bongs, dings, doings, barks,
crows or makes some other sound when I'm in a setting where it is
disruptive.

Okay, pet peeve, whine over.

I used to like it when you would do that and it would say "It's hours
o'clock".

And, I do have a spare.  And, nothing was better then holding in the button
and turning the volume control on and off several times.  Occasionally, you
could get it to make a bunch of weird noises.
