I own one like this (gift) but admittedly I never wear it.

I’ve got a few Omega Aqua Sailing bracelets. I sometimes wear it on my right wrist and my Rolex on the left wrist.

I wear a SS bracelet that is designed after a motorcycle chain on the opposite wrist as my watch.

I like bracelets and sometimes wear either a gold or sterling silver ID bracelet. The Sterling Silver is from Tiffany and Company and is my favorite. I also have several leather woven bracelets. Some people seem to be able to wear bracelets well while others, not so much.

Nice Tim. I have this one in the small 7 1/2” size.

Fits perfectly and a nice piece.

Watch only for me

Realise this a sweeping generalisation but more often than not it’s a particular type of guy that wears gold jewellery in my neck of the woods. Just sayin

Sometimes on the opposite wrist - my bracelets are usually cheap souvenirs that I picked up from a trip and will wear for a few months.

I think that might be a bridge too far. I don't want to be the PC police but I think judging someone on their jewelry is not an ideal method. This is coming from a reformed judgemntalist, if you will.

I wear a white gold bracelet on the opposite wrist, since my daily timepiece is SS and my wedding band is platinum.

I keep a yellow gold bracelet in the safety deposit box with my YG Daytona and a YG wedding band. Those only come out for special occasions a few times a year.

I wear a couple... one every day and I change up the other.. on same wrist. So 2 on the wrist. All but one are metallic.

Not to hijack the thread, but I noticed one pic where the poster had the bracelet on the same wrist as the watch. It actually looked pretty good- and something that for some reason I've never considered before.

So do others wear a bracelet on the same wrist as their watch?

TIA

I have a couple of MB bracelets, one leather and one steel. I wear them when I remember, which hasn't been for a while, but always on the opposite wrist to my watch

I wear one on each wrist (in addition to the LV GTG bracelets). The left one is always there; the right one gets changed periodically.

Are those rubber ones so you can get back into the disco? I think they're only good for the one night.

Nope. They remind me of the great times I've had at the 2016, 2017, and 2018 GTGs in LV.

Has to have a purpose for me so watch only. Maybe one of those bracelets you can pull apart into a cord if I ever went “exploring”

I like that!!! This time of year I have a hard time wearing Masonic rings because my fingers change sizes due to the heat.
