so i wondered, which hand do you wear YOUR watch on, and then of course the "why".
some of you may not even wear a watch?
just curious!

sparkly_stars Ideal Rock Total Posts: 576 Last Post: 10/28/2009 Member Since: 7/26/2005	I wear my watch on my right hand, simply because my right hand rings are "fancier" and any watch i wear i feel will always dress the rings down(or something?). My right hand(even if i have that rhr there), i feel is still my casual hand.. so the watch goes on that one! (i know a LOT of people have to have their watch on their left hand.. but i just don't like the look of any of the watches i've had ever with my left hand rings..) lol..

I think its funny b/c FH wears his on the right (right handed as well). I guess we are just strange....

I guess I always felt that my right hand isn't as feminine enough, so to dress it up... I wear my watch on my right hand. ok... so I'm the odd one!! * who doesn't love a sparkling ROCK *

Strange, huh?

Rascal49 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,350 Last Post: 7/16/2007 Member Since: 7/25/2004	I used to wear it on my right even though I am right handed. When I realized that you are supposed to wear it on the opposite wrist, I switched to the left arm. But lately, I haven't been wearing one at all. ________________________________ Michelle AKA Stretch4 I intend to live forever... so far, so good.

Probably because when I was little, someone told me to do that not realizing I was left handed. Now I wear it there anyway, I couldn't even imagine wearing it on my right hand!

I guess so it doesnt drag or get in the way when I write but it just feels weird to me on my right wrist, I dont know why! Then again, I recall the days in the 80s when I wore 2 or 3 watches...swatch watches...on each wrist... My favorite color is sparkle!!!

I'm a righty. Its just more comfortable. I also almost always wear bracelets on my left as well. My right hand is pretty lonely, now that I think about it!

Not sure about the logic of that but I've always had that in my head and never understood why people wore them on their right hands. I always feel like they're doing it wrong!!

DiamondLil Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,405 Last Post: 6/1/2006 Member Since: 6/8/2003	I wear my watch on my left arm, and I am a right hander. I'm a nut about wearing a watch -- must have it on 24 hours a day, even when I sleep. It's not like I look at it in the middle of the night, but I have it on all evening (must know what time it is constantly), and I just don't take it off when I go to sleep. My rings come off, but I always wear my watch. I'll take it off to get a shower and then put it right back on. Thankfully, it is superslim and does not scratch anything or get in the way.

hopefulheidi Cut Rock Total Posts: 335 Last Post: 10/29/2008 Member Since: 1/10/2005	I'm right handed with a few different reasons for wearing my watch on my left hand. 1) As a web developer I often spend a lot of time using my mouse to make graphics and I can't comfortably rest my right wrist on my wrist support when wearing a watch. 2) Since I just got a new watch with a few sparklies embedded in it and I wear a RHR every day but have a currently diamondless left hand, it allows me to have a little bling on both sides :)

jennalyns Cut Rock Total Posts: 264 Last Post: 6/12/2009 Member Since: 10/28/2004	I wear mine on the left. I used to wear it on the right as a kid, and someone told me that was the wrong hand, so I've worn it on the left since I was about 11! lol. I'm right handed, and it's easier to put it on and take off when it's on the left. Also I'm a music teacher so I always take my watch off when I conduct because it gets in the way, no matter what hand it's on.

Milly Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,651 Last Post: 4/6/2008 Member Since: 6/28/2005	I used to wear my watch on the left wrist, but 3 years ago, my mom got me this jade bangle, so I wear that on my left wrist now. So I have to wear my watch on my right, since it doesn't go with the jade bangle. It felt kinda weird at the beginning, but after a few months, I got used to it and it feels normal now. Sometimes I'll try to wear the watch on the left, and now that feels weird. ~Can I have a cookie now?~
