[Odie]

Im right handed but wear my watch on my right wrist, is this strange? Does anyone else wear their watch on the wrong side.

It is a bit strange but not unknown. My wife also wears her watch on the 'wrong' wrist.

I think it only matters if you have a manual watch with the crown on the right. Then it makes sense to wear it on your left arm so that you can wind with your right hand.

I used to to what you did, then I found out that because I was using my rigt hand for most things having a half lb watch on my arm wasn't the best tactic.

I'm left handed, and wear it on the left wrist.

Right handed & wear my watch on the left.

Didn't we have a thread on this recently?

Don't wear on the same side as the hand you use to wipe your.....(you can fill in the blank).....

Always seemed sound advice to me.

covered before - basic jist is wear it on the opposite hand to that which you write with - or you are weird. Wear it with the face on the underside of your wrist and you are very weird.

Of course, there are people that are not weird and still do the above...but like buying a staffy or driving an M3 - if you know about the connotations yet still go ahead...you are weird !
