How do you Dispose of a Watch?

Hey... I have had this watch for probably 20 years, since I was a teen. It's a cheapy quartz chrono that I haven't worn in over a decade, brand is "Vitesse" (I think they're long gone). I don't think I'll ever wear it again, so I want to dump it. But I don't want to throw it away. Any ideas on how I should get rid of it? Does Goodwill take watches? Would they even bother with this thing? What would you do?

Take it to a pawn shop, you might get a few bucks for it.

Keep it and take it out of the box every other year and think back of times long gone.

Not a bad idea! Come to think of it, I wish I had more of my older watches!
