Left hand or right hand???

I am just wondering which hand you guys normally wear your beloved watch (rolex)? Left or right hand?

I am a right handed and it's more active, so I wear it on my left.

anyone wearing alternate at both hands and it depends

Mostly right handed, although I throw and bowl lefty. Always wear my watch on the left wrist. Feels strange when I strap one on the right wrist, as when I need to take one in for service and I wear it into the store. It does become a conversation piece then.

Q: Why do you wear a watch on both wrists?

A: So that I'll have the correct time 4 times a day.

Should I start up a new trend, Ed?

Right-handed, left-wristed. Until I get married...then I'll switch it up. I can't wear two pieces of jewelry on the same arm. How about THAT for OCD?

Guess when I got my first watch many years ago (which I still have) the person who put it on for me was right handed.

In fact, after a few years of wearing my watch on the left wrist. May feel discomfort, especially when the weather is warm. Those who likes suntan may has TT on their wrist as well

Ambidextrous, but my preference is watch on the left and everything else on the right.
