Wearing watches

[Pizzabeak]

Left or right wrist?

 

[Sockrates]

Whatever your preference is. There is no law stating one is correct and the other is not.

I wear mine on my left.

 

[Jennywocky]

I don't wear watches, I have a cell phone.

You can't write and other things without some discomfort with it on your dominant hand(typically right) which is why I believe the left is common), or some people just take theirs off.

 

[Teffnology]

I go left because of right hand dom.

Anyone ever seen someone wear it on the palm side of their forearm? I had a boss that did it and it bugged the crap out of me.

It is basically a fashion accessory instead of a utility at this point with auto updating cell phones.

Depends on how you use it. I actually use mine due to convenience and efficiency.

I haven't wore a watch in a very long time. I always wore it on the left because it catches on too many things when I wear it on my right.

When watches hit a point, I will start wearing one again. It needs a gyro, screen, light sensor, network access, and a few other things before I'm on board. At this point it would become more like a mouse and I would likely wear it on my right.

Right arm because I'm mostly left-handed. Only exception is when riding a motorcycle because I can't really check the time, without releasing the throttle, if it's on my right arm.

 

[Cognisant]

I don't wear a watch just so I have an excuse to ask people what time it is, it's a small old-timey social thing, finding excuses to thank people for things to make them feel useful/appreciated.

Try it, you'll be surprised by the difference it makes.

 

[nanook]

have no place for a watch, because i already wear my mala on the left.

i'm right handed, so the right arm is off limits.

Lasers, the only civilized way to execute people.

wristwatches, the fucked up shit to still be wearing

I've noticed most people wear it on the left, probably like 1 out of 15~20 wear it on the right, disregarding hand preference. I'm right handed and started wearing it on my right before I noticed most people wear it on the left. So far haven't noticed any conflict with activities concerning my dominant hand. Will probably try the left hand sometime for a better sense of balance.

I only started wearing it for extra style. The battery died a couple years ago anyway so I'm probably not even going to wear it anymore for the time being. It was just a little foray.

Same here. I rarely wear a wristwatch, though when I do, I wear it on my right.

I also rarely wear a watch (only when dressed up, which is almost never); when I do, I wear it on my dominant hand (right).

Normally my phone or other various electronics that are always around me are used to tell time.
