There should be some other choices. For example I'm interested in the Apple watch but so far I haven't purchased one. Currently I'm wearing a Fitbit Charge 4 on my dominant wrist and my regular watches on my non-dominant wrist. So would I wear it at the same time, not likely. The Fitbit Charge 4 and the Garmin Vivosmart 4 that I own serve my purposes and don't look as dorky as wearing a regular watch on one wrist and an Apple watch on the other. I wish Apple would come out with something not so Dick Tracy!!

Wore the Apple Watch with my mechanical watches for about a month as I liked the health tracking stuff.

The big problem for me was that it made people look at my watches a lot more or ask me about it. It felt a bit too much like showing off.

I dropped the Apple and went back to using my garmin for running and I got an Oura ring for general steps and sleep tracking.

Check this sinn strap out:

https://www.watchbuys.com/store/pc/S...2-mm-p3043.htm

It will allow you to wear both a mechanical watch and apple watch on the same wrist!

Apple Watch and Rolex worn together?

Well, there’s no choice for:

“Don’t wear one... but I do have interest.”

I haven’t owned an Apple Watch... but I may finally get one this year.

There’s an app and FB group called Clockology that is centered around customizing Apple Watch dials.

Still don't want an Apple Watch. Or Fitbit fitness bangle thingy. Their marketing has so far failed.

Sure why not? You have two wrists, might as well use them. Jewelry & mechanical art on the left wrist, fitness tracking etc on the right.

Lady at RSC in Beverly Hills had a date just on one arm and a Apple Watch on the other when I dropped off my watch last week. Thought it was odd.....

I just find it very odd looking.. And dare I say superfluous. I mean, if the apple watch couldn't tell time I'd understand. I realise that Rolex is more jewellery than watch in these cases, it has to be, but still.... each to their own!

No interest in Apple watch at all, having an iPhone is enough.

Watch on my left wrist.
Fitbit on my right wrist.

I like to track my heart rate. Lowest last month was 43 at rest. Resting heart rate I average between 48-52.

Love my Apple Watch. For the activity and notifications. I leave my phone on my desk at work most of the time, and the watch keeps me up to date on texts and other notifications. For better or worse, it keeps me more connected.

I tried to do the bilateral watches, but it felt very odd and made writing with my right hand feel too weird.

Now it’s mostly Apple Watch with Rolex for more special occasions. Too bad, I really enjoyed my blue YM as a daily.

Having AFIB I have to have my Apple Watch close to track heart rate, so either I’m wearing it or it’s in my car, pocket or wife’s bag. Wearing 2 watches at the same time is just weird to me.

That’s what I’ve done for the last 3 years - just a Charge 3 so it’s more like a band.

Apple Watch and Rolex worn together?

I have an Apple watch from past few years, which I don’t wear regularly for the same reason. How to wear two watches together! I looked at Fitbit thingys but apparently Apple watch is more accurate in comparison. Wish Apple also came with a band just for the health data stuff which one can track on the phone. That would be perfect!
