On the left for me.

On a side note, I noticed that U-Boat watch crowns on on the left instead of the right. Maybe, they were made for lefties! I could be wrong!

GJS · 7 November 2010, 09:50 PM

Used to wear on the right arm a while ago.

Now only on the left. (I'm right handed)

Submarino · 8 November 2010, 12:30 AM

Left for me.

Al1969 · 8 November 2010, 01:58 PM

I'm a southpaw and wear it on my left.

tflyer99 · 8 November 2010, 04:20 PM

I had heard from an informed Watch Salesman that the reason for wearing a watch on the left hand (if one is a righty) is that you use your dominant right hand a lot more and therefor the watch will be less prone to wear and tear, scratches etc. if worn on the left hand since it is not used as often. Makes sense.

2005rivers · 8 November 2010, 04:25 PM

I wear it on the correct wrist (left) - lol

TSW · 8 November 2010, 06:19 PM

Lefty

There is this Danish fashion guy who has some Rolex watches, and he always wears one on each arm. When somebody asks him why he is wearing to watches he aswers: "Because I can..."

What do you guys think of that?

BladeDogg · 8 November 2010, 06:45 PM

esm · 8 November 2010, 08:24 PM

jdc · 8 November 2010, 08:31 PM

either it does not bother me

Paul H. · 8 November 2010, 09:12 PM

Left wrist and also left handed. I was told by a watch maker only a few weeks back that watches were infact designed to be worn on the left wrist and are at their best when the crown is facing down i.e when walking around or arm is down by your side.

Tunacan26 · 8 November 2010, 10:53 PM

Left, though I write left handed. Causes me to be extra carful in writing. Oh well, worse things in life I suppose.

IMO Akimbo watches should only be if you're on the way to or from a watchmaker to pick up or drop off, and don't want to be naked for one leg of the journey.
