I have one very antiquated rotating gauge in my top tank and none at all for the belly. No fuel flow meter, either.

So I rely totally on a planned rate of consumption and my watch. I start to feel uncomfortable when I have less than one hour left and the degree of discomfort is proportional to the type of terrain I'm overflying at the time.

I understand that some of you have much more sophisticated means of ascertaining your fuel status 😉
