    I dont wear a watch but back when I did I wore it on my left wrist. You're meant to wear it on the left wrist as far as I know..

    One thing I've seen a mate do is wearing it on his right and having the face turned inward.. weird. (By inward I mean it's over the part of your wrist where the veins are visible)

    Funny coincidence, at lunch today with two of the lads from the office we noticed that we all wear our watches on our right wrists. And we're all right handed.

    Right handed, and wear my watch on my right wrist. Looking at my left wrist for the time always seemed awkward so I changed. Right is definitely more comfortable.

    Nice to know I am not the only one who does this :D

    I always think men with watches on their right-hand wrists look very strange.
