I'm a student. I want to know how much time I have left. (read: how long can I stay in bed
)
Especially during winter it's impossible to read the time on my watch when wearing gloves.
Besides, I have to cross a few bridges and a lot of traffic lights to get to work. I want to know if I have to speed up or can just enjoy the scenery.

Well, during spring and autumn temperatures can be on the edge of being comfortable or too hot. Better to switch at the end of the street before I'm sweating my ass off.
But okay, it is sort of a gimmick. But a cool one.
