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.

Rolexwatch · 27 March 2013, 12:21 PM

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.

threemonkeys · 27 March 2013, 12:29 PM

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.

When I wear a bracelet it is on my opposite wrist

agreed.

jimmypark54 · 27 March 2013, 02:19 PM

opposite wrists for me. usually a Tod's or Miansai

chieftd · 27 March 2013, 02:25 PM

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. :)

hoops10 · 27 March 2013, 05:12 PM

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

Rolex-10 · 27 March 2013, 06:01 PM

No.

Looks tacky IMHO.

cop414 · 27 March 2013, 09:20 PM

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.

Annan · 28 March 2013, 12:22 AM

YG ID bracelet on the opposite wrist for the past 25 years....never anything with my Rolex.

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.

In some Eastern European circles, the bracelet and ring are still lingering, but the more educated and sophisticated circles - long gone.

If your circle judges people based on a couple of accessories then it's not educated and sophisticated.

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.

Vincent65 · 28 March 2013, 01:41 AM

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

Yanks213x · 28 March 2013, 05:18 AM

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.

Rags · 28 March 2013, 09:16 AM

I wear a gold bracelet on my right wrist & my watch on my left.

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

The DJ (and now Tudor)...is on the other hand.., of course.

PHBouche · 28 March 2013, 10:24 AM

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.

Boopie · 28 March 2013, 10:33 AM

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.

mr.president1 · 28 March 2013, 11:35 AM

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.
