Question?
Hi to all!
How do you guys wear the watch, closer to the fist or behind the ball of the wrist? |

Behind the ball of my wrist. I would imagine close to the fist would be too loose.

Both. I typically wear my watch toward the hand unless I get hot. Then slip it behind the wrist joint, toward the elbow, where there's a little more room.

Behind the ball ... my AD said that this is how Rolex recommend it as there is less chance of the crown becoming loose.

Dunno if you're wearing it wrong, but that explanation seems all confusing and wrong!!

I don't think there's right or wrong way, as long as it feels comfortable.....

On or behind the ball. I find it uncomfortable when it is closer to my hand.

I wear mine just a little loose,so it slides around a small amount. Sometimes its behind the ball and sometimes resting on the ball. Also depends on what watch im wearing how much i like it to move...i dont like the bigger watches(PAM or monsters)to move much because of the crown hitting my hand.

I wear mine below the ball, closer to my hand. It's how I've always worn mine. Though when I buy the SD I'm looking at I'll be getting a NATO strap for it and I'll probably wear it a bit higher, I dunno.
