My friend wears three watches. He has a lot of time on his hand. :wacko:

A man with one watch knows what time it is. A man with two is never sure...

 

Have not worn a wristwatch since I got a cell phone.

This is for left-handed people. If you wear a wrist watch, do you wear it on your right wrist? If so, why?


I wear mine on my left wrist. This goes back to my first watch, which because of the location of the winding stem, I could wind without taking it off.


But if you wear your watch on your right wrist, the winding stem points back towards your elbow. You can't reach it. You have to take the watch off.


Yet it is practically a given that if you are left handed you will wear it on your right wrist. I don't get it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The watch is "typically" worn on the non-dominant hand, primarily due to the dominant hand writing and doing other such activities. I had googled this a while back out of curiosity. I'm a lefty and always wear my watch, a wind up Breitling (gift from the wife), on my right wrist. Wearing it on the left is like writing with the opposite hand, just not natural.
