Here are pictures of mine, I don't wear them all at the same time but those two pictures show the ones I currently own.
The two first ones are Pandora's macrame band and double braided leather band with the gold clasps, the other bracelet belonged to my grandmother, I had the plate put on with my name to make it a tad longer (she had very small wrists), it's a great souvenir from her. I bought the chain bracelet in this one, the other one was a gift from a good TRF friend of mine.

Jesus, no. I would never wear a metal bracelet, with or without a watch....
Another thing are beads and leather as bracelets: those I'd use. Last edited by Rolexwatch; 27 March 2013 at 12:35 PM.. Reason: Adding image |

Geez - some of these comments...
It's really quite a diverse world out there, kids. If a bracelet is not right for you, that's ok. Personally I'm not a big fan of hairy backs, bad comb-overs, and beer guts. But live and let live, I say. |

18K gold curblink bracelet on the opposite wrist. I have worn a gold bracelet for over 30 years. Glad I bought my last one in 2001 when gold was very cheap compared to today. :)

Yes, I wear a bracelet on my right wrist, opposite of my watch.

Very, very rarely. Sometimes at the shore on vacation I'll pick up one of those rawhide braided "bracelets" and wear it on my opposite wrist, but generally the answer is no.

Agreed. Some people can make it look nice and others can't. I has to do with the person, their style, etc. Just like some watches look good on someone when others don't.

I don't wear a bracelet but if I did, it would definitely be on the opposite wrist....I would not allow a bracelet scratch my case.

It's elitist, snobbish and ignorant. Personally I wear a simple bracelet my gf gave me on the opposite wrist. Very sentimental. I have 3 Miansai bracelets. Between those 3 bracelets, I have one for every occasion. |

Usually on right wrist, but sometimes with watch as well. Doesn't look 'girly' to me. Or passé, or uneducated or unsophisticated. Geez...

I'm not a bracelet guy, but there was one featured in a GQ magazine last year with Derrick Rose on the cover that I liked a lot. I believe it was some Tom ford design but it was a simple steel metal band. I haven't been able to find it but I also don't think I have the skin tone to pull off such a small piece.. I also may never pursue it because it was way overpriced..

Opposite wrist, gold torque bangle.
Used to be a 9oz curb bracelet, which I wish I hadn't sold, even though I doubled my money on it, It'd be worth more than 3 times what I paid for it now, scrap value. |

$8500 watch sitting next to a $1 street fair bracelet. Guilty as charged.

It's funny my lady just told me to look at bracelets to balance my DSSD a few weeks back. I usually just use a watch. But I bought a pandora leather bracelet anyways to try. I must say I only used it once. I don't really feel comfortable with it. But when I got it I put it in the opposit wrist of the watch.

A couple of my female friends wear metal jewelry bracelets on the same wrist as their Rolex watch...I don't get it. They would scratch the heck out of the watch.
I rarely wear bracelets. I wear my Rolex on my right wrist because I am left-handed. Because I write and type a lot for work, any bracelet on my left hand would get in the way. I would never wear a metal (gold, silver) bracelet on the same wrist as my watch because of damage. So, I wear bracelets only rarely, "off duty" so to speak, such as going to a nice dinner. |

I actually haven't thought much about it.... But now that you mention it I wouldn't mind getting a tethered rope bracelet for my wrist.
