Since my apple watch Sport purchase 17 months ago my phone never rings, silent mode and haptic feedback is bliss and far more sociable.

This has been my ringtone for the past 7 years.


My text message alert just for the hell of it.
 
The Duck quack. I remember the phone rang while my coworker I shared the space with was in and he paused and said, " Is that a duck?"

"Yup, it is my ringtone." We both started laughing hard.

Still my choice.
 
As perviously mentioned I have silent mode and haptic on apple watch.

I did get into custom ring tones back in the P800 Sony Ericsson Symbian days
Some advice:
DONT use a favorite song as a ring tone as that song will never be the same again - in fact you will listen to it in a totally different way - not a positive way, if fact you may start to dislike the song - IMHO.
The word 'oxymoron' comes to mind - hope I'm using that in the correct context.

3 Ringtones

1. It's Your Love, Tim McGraw---if wife calls

2. Work calls--No Justice, Jimmy Cliff

3. Anyone else--Stir it Up, Bob Marley
 
For the last decade or so, it usually is Linkin Park's "Somewhere I Belong" because I like the first 30 seconds of that song or Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" which is usually reserved for parents or unknown numbers. Maybe since 2008 about 9 years ago when I had the Nokia N82 as my first smartphone have I been using both songs as my ringtones.

I also rotate it with The Strokes' "Reptilia." I get bittersweet watching that Note7 ad as Samsung used "Reptilia" which was my theme song for my MySpace page back circa 2006-2008...
