Watch wrist placement
Where do you where your rolex..on the wrist bone ir slightly before the wrist bone..
Ive always worn my rolex on my wrist bone..but see a lot of wrist pics with the rolex slightly before the wrist bone... Also..do you wear it loose enough where it can slide an inch or two or snug where it doesnt move at all.... |

Depends...for activities snug on the wrist, and for work a bit loose. I put a Glidelock on my BLNR and it suits all occasions!

With bracelet - slightly above the wristbone and a little loose but not too loose (enough so I can insert my pinky in there).
With lether strap = I wear the strap a bit tighter than with the bracelet.

Just above the wrist bone, snug enough that my GMTII does not slide at all but not so snug to be uncomfortable. This can be a fine line to achieve but the Easylink clasp helps. I am close to the same with my DJ but it's not as easy with the Super Jubilee hidden clasp.

Right before the wrist bone. I lost a ton of weight and as a result my wrist bone sticks out way too much...

Snug as close to the hand as possible but not so snug that it chokes the wrist.

I wear all my watches snug above the wrist bone. If necessary (with leather bands, typically), I may have to push them up so they don't slide down my wrist. I don't like to wear my watch loose on the wrist.

Really I like mine a bit lose so I can slide it to move it with an inch to two inches of travel. Any snugger and the watch is a distraction.

On the bone as close to my hand as possible.
Tried it the other way but couldn't get used to it. |

Just a little loose, so I can move it around, but not too loose.

Little loose that it slide up and down above wrist bone. Even with a gold watch it is much more comfortable and better looking (in my case) than making it snug above the bone.

I expand the bracelet whenever I want to wear it looser. Best of both worlds. |

Loose enough for it to move around a bit so it can be above the wrist bone, below, or anywhere in between.
I can comfortably slip my little finger under the clasp. |
