yes, for sure.  I'm a huge clockwatcher.  I don't wear a watch.  Well, I have a couple of them, one for scuba diving that I always wear for vacations, and one really nice one that I wear for weddings, funerals, job interviews, etc., but I don't wear a watch otherwise.  On the other hand, I have some deeply-ingrained psychological need to always be aware of the exact time, so I look at clocks.  There's never any shortage of them.  I can see four of them from where I'm sitting in the living room just now.  From my office window, I can see the big one on the quadrangle, as well as the wallclock on my wall, the deskclock on my desk, and the one on the computer.  I have at least one in every room of the house including all three bathrooms and the basement.  

Also, I don't use alarms.  Oh, once in a blue moon I'll set one, like if I have a 6:30AM flight from Harrisburg or something, but I'm a firm believer that they're unhealthy, so one of the first things I do when I wake up is look at the clock.  I keep an inordinately large number of them within eyesight of the bed so I can see the time from just about any angle.  

Before now I never really thought about calling myself a clockwatcher, but now that you mention the term, I'd definitely say that I qualify.
