Which wrist ?

[Nickelson23]

Which wrist are you supposed to wear your watch?. I thought the rule of thumb was for a right handed person your left wrist. Vice versa if your left handed.

[SeventyThree]

Whatever's comfy for you I suppose.

I'm right handed and mine's on my left wrist.


The folk I don't trust are those that wear them with the strap/clasp/buckle at the top and the face at the bottom. Weirdos.

[RemainAllHoof]

Supposed? The left wrist so that the crown is on the outside which means you can wind it up without taking it off or possibly adjust the time/date if you've got good fingers.

If you're right handed and wear your watch on your right wrist then you are a certified ghey! Crown out is the correct way, in my opinion.

Left handers are excused - they can wear watches on their right arm, if they wish. I'd rather practice being a right hander though, personally!

Agree about the oddballs who wear them clasp up. Proper weirdos. Serial killers in the making, I tell thee!

Wear your watch on your least skilled hand, that way if your watch were to become snagged on something and you lost your hand as a result, at least you could wk whilst recovering from the incident.

[Speedracer329]

Well I am left handed but wear my watch on my left wrist. Just feels right. I did try going right wrist in my youth but I didn't like it at all.

[R.P.M]

Right hander and always wear it on my right. As does my father and his father too. Very odd.

It does make sense to wear it on your least skilled hand to reduce wear/damage, but cant get used to it.
Have just swapped to try it again.

Wear it on your non-wking wrist, they rattle and chafe otherwise.

Obviously.

Agreed. Only a terrorist would wear it on the right.

And if you haven't got a left arm?

Pocket watch.

Saves energy if you've got a self-winder...

I physically cant bear to have my watch on my right wrist, it just feels so un-natural - I remember last time I read a thread like this, I tried swapping to my right - had to change back almost immediately.

[Funk]

This thread is useless without poll.

Likewise for a swap from right to left for me..

I've always worn my watch on my right wrist, I don't know why, I just have..

I'm the same, right handed and where a watch on my right wrist. Feels completely alien to have it on my left

Sorry. I meant:

[Hairy Cornflake]

If you are right handed you wear your watch on your left wrist.

Then you don't spill your pint if you want to know the time when drinking.

Simple!!

[slinky]

If I'm drinking, the time is immaterial..
