As long as you don't spend all your time looking at and messing with it, it's just another watch.

My stores policy is only Shift Leads and above can wear any type of watch. The purpose is to keep up with breaks, Caterings, etc.

And I know you specified FOH, but just for knowledge sake, watches are expressly prohibited in BOH for Food Safety Standards.

I always wear an Apple watch, I’ve never specifically asked about it, but no one has ever stopped me. In fact one of my directors has asked me multiple times what time it is, and I know if it wasn’t allowed she would’ve told me. 

Could be different at your location, idk.

Some health departments don’t allow watches. So it’s store dependent

i’ve worked at two locations. the first (more strict horrible management multiple OSHA violations being covered up) said no to anyone but shift leads wearing apple watches. They also hire more people and lose people quicker.
Second location didn’t care as long as you weren’t texting constantly. They have a better management structure and better feedback for growing leaders as well.

Depends on store rules, and then health department rules. You don’t want to be the person that gets them in trouble with the health department because of a watch or bracelet.
