it's not that theres a way your "supposed to wear" but more of a design element. Most people tend to be right handed. If my understanding is correct, watches were designed with the crown on the right side of the case for the bulk of the right handed people out there. Right handers would wear it on their left wrist so they could easily manipulate the crown with their dominant/right hand without having to take the watch off.

This is why tudor came out with the LHD Pelagos and other brands have come out with their LH watches with the crown on the left side of the case. This way lefties can wear on their right wrist and easily manipulate the crown with their dominant hand.

How do you keep from scratching your watch and/or desk while writing?

I hear ya, but I think you may as well just us the smartwatch by itself, considering it has a time function...and a more accurate one at that. At this point, it's a bit like towing a vintage 911 behind your Tesla all day.

Nope!

You can take my mechanical timepiece from my cold dead... If you saw my daily workflow, it all works great. Efficiency. Plus, hey, are you saying dump the Rolex on a Rolex discussion board?

Hey now!

I fail to see how having both a mechanical watch and digital watch on at the same time improves efficiency, unless maybe they were set to different times, but to each his own. For all I know, you may even wear The Rock's old favorite, highly efficient carrier...aka the hip pack!

I'm right handed and have always worn a watch on the right wrist. Funny thing for me is that while a watch bugs me when on the left wrist I wear a bracelet on left with no problem. :)Cheers, Tim

You need to get a small watch pillow that you can carry in your pocket. Then whatever you need to write, put the pillow under your watch. A small piece of microfiber will also work.

Count me in! Right handed and, since I was a kid, wearing it on the right.

Best regards,

This setup works great for time/date/month with the SS SkyD / DD40 / Sub / 'tona / etc, while the phone/computer handles appts, phone, messaging, health tracking, etc.

Well kind of in the same boat, kind of. Left hand gets the watch; right hand gets the Fitbit Flex 2 bracelet so it's not banging into the watch. The Flex 2 keeps track of activity and sleep and gives me a vibration on incoming calls and texts.

AKA, the fanny pack... Not really all that hip...

Oh man, you too? I mean, I've loved watches since I was a little kid, but I still have at least a littlebit of a pragmatic view about them, and I just couldn't wear a mechanical watch on one wrist simply as jewelry, when I have a better timekeeper on the other wrist.
