This is probably a good idea for PNMs, too. You don't want to end up checking your watch out of habit and give the impression that you're eager for your time at that house to be over.
We weren't allowed to wear watches either, as a rule... but we always had that one sister (usually me, lol) who would either forget to leave her watch at home, or who had a legitimate reason for needing to have a watch on before or after the day's parties, and who would then have to leave her watch in the back room - from which things could, and occasionally did, walk away. So leave your watches safely at home!
