Does anybody wear a bracelet with their Rolex?

Anyone wear a bracelet with their Rolex? If so, left or right of it? On the opposite wrist? Thanks

I actually do both, sometimes it will be on the same wrist, sometimes on the other one...it depends on my mood mostly!

Yes, on the opposite wrist. Never on the same because (1) it looks unbalanced if the other wrist is left bare, and (2) it'll likely scratch my watch.

Not me. I wear a wedding band, a college ring, and watch that's it. No bracelet no necklace.

Just me.

I wear this leather bracelet when I need to tone down my DJII a little bit for casual wear. I like the look:

X2. It's a nice sexy/masculine contrast. I like that it won't scratch the watch as well.

Bracelets are a little girly IMHO. I had handcuffs on for a short stint does that count.

Me, no. I know of one lady who wears both on the right and another who wears both on the left. Why?
