Yes, he drives Porsches, but what brand of watch, and on which wrist?

I wear my watches on my left wrist, I write with my right hand but I do so with a lefty style. I would probably drag the hell out of any watch wearing it on my right side. As it is now, I smear anything written in pencil.

Right handed, left wrist.

if you wear your watch too loose on your left wrist it will slide down over the wrist bone and the crown will dig into your wrist. The solution is to wear the watch a little tighter so it cannot slide over the wrist bone.

I wear on my right wrist like this gentleman here.

[FTX I]

Like him as well.

I'm also left-handed (but only for writing and drawing, or when using only one piece of cutlery; everything else is done right-handed! ) Anyway, when I was a kid, I used to wear my watches on my right wrist, which I had forgotten about, but have since seen photos, and then at some point - maybe around age 12 - I switched to wearing on the left side.

Here, I can be seen {inexplicably} gallivanting about with my older brother on the roof of a house in Bern, when I was about 10. Watch can just about be seen glinting on the right arm!

me right too..

In my misguided youth, I was an accordionist. I was told that accordion-players and left-handed individuals tended to wear their wristwatches on the right (on the left, it interferes with the bellows-strap). I no longer play professionally, but have continued to wear my wristwatches on the right. Except at watch conventions, when I wear on both wrists, like everyone else.

So .... I read this thread a bit earlier and thought I'd try this out. Right handed, normally wear mine on the left. Switched to wearing it on my right and discovered the braclet needed adjusting

Back to the left where it belongs

I've tried it, but it just feels so wrong and uncomfortable...for one thing, my right wrist is just a little bigger than the left, and the fit is not good.

Mostly on my left but often I'll move it back and forth between wrists, especially on hot, humid days which come cheap where I live. Switching lets my wrists breath a little.

I'm right handed and always wear on my left wrist. Just never felt "right" (pun intended) on
my right wrist.

[Hodog16]

Also left handed and wear watches only on my right.

[Scott1907]

I'm right handed and have always wore my watch on my right hand, everyone always asks if I'm left handed.

My dad said the same, but he wore his with the watch on the inside of the wrist.

I could never get used to that...
