What Arm Do You Wear Your Watch On?

[veggiepatch1959]

Apple Watch (my daily watch) allows you to configure it so the crown is facing out on either arm.

How about your nightly watch.......?

Have not worn a watch for at least a decade.

Left arm when I did.

Was it stolen?

Was it stolen?

Mine was and I haven't replaced it.

People are going to get sick of me asking "Have you got the time?"......

I still wear the Apple Watch as I use it for sleep tracking due for medical reasons.

lol, no, I still have it, just do not use it.

I use my phone to get the time.

But how long does it take to get it out of your handbag.....

Right handed person here yet I still use my right hand for using my watch.

 

[Lambretta]

I am left handed and for years wore it on my left wrist.

I got a Tissot titanium watch and that started to polish the metal away as I wrote, so I switched to my right wrist.

Also gives you a chance to get your "step" count up?

Left handed, left wrist.

However I was a right-handed athlete (swing in cricket, forearm in tennis/squash) so the right hand did all the hard work in sport, that's probably why.

Who actually wears a watch these days? A simple look at a phone & bam...there’s the time.

Fitbit and Apple watch etc...

I’ve tried this suggestion with my Fitbit obsessive mrs, she doesn’t appreciate the suggestion.

 

[TheFrog]

I wear a Fitbit. I alternate the arms because the band tends to irritate after a while.

They are designed for the left hand. Note where the main button/knob thingy is. It’s easy for the right hand to manipulate/wind as required.

The crown is what you are referring to
The idea is, it doesn't dig into your arm if its facing outwards towards your hand, plus the winding and operation of pushers etc as you mentioned.

You'll see 'left handed' watches with the crown on the left, eg Tudor Pelagos left hand.
Also plenty of left handed crowns for the sake of being different
