should a man put a watch on his left or right wrist , maybe it doesn`t matter ????????????????

Answer 1

Depends on what the man feels comfortable with

Answer 2

In general it is a matter of comfort. But as a matter of practicality, convention has become for persons to wear their watches on their non-dominent wrist. This is because the dominent wrist subjects the watch to more damage, when working. However, since Cartier did not develop the first wrist watch until the early 1900s there has not been centuries of convention developed on the subject. Another issue is, some people wear their wrist watches facing their palms and others their backhand.

Answer 3

I think the best solution is to wear it on on the wrist adjacent to your "non dominant" hand (e.g. your left wrist if you are right handed). That way, it is out of the way of many of the one handed tasks you perform, and it has less "swing weight" impact on joints and muscles. This is especially true for larger watches, like diver's or Rolex style watches. It is also better for the watch, as it will not get bumped as much, avoiding chips or scratches on the bezel and crystal.

You should also ask yourself whether you need to wear a watch at all. With the emergence of inexpensive electronic "clock" technology, "clocks" are everywhere, including your car, cell phone, radio, PDA, computer, DVR, etc. and many people (especially younger ones) no longer wear watches. Moreover, because cell phones run on the time of their network provider, they are sure to be accurate. So think about whether you really need to wear a watch at all.

Finally, remember to reset your watch (and clocks) tonight!

Answer 4

I think it depends, if a man is a left-handed then you should wear it on the left wrist. If a man is a right-handed then you should wear it on the right wrist. If a man is forgetful then he should wear it to the wrist that he did not usually wear it.

Answer 5

It all depends whether you are right or left handed. If you are right handed you tend to wear the watch on your left wrist and vice versa. This all came about because if you wear a watch on your "working" hand you are more likely to damage it through shock waves. Think of the amount of shocks going through a watch if you are banging in a nail for instance!This is probably less relevant today with digital watches.

Answer 6

It doesn't matter. I have never heard of the male/female correctness. Most right handed people prefer to wear their watch on the left wrist and left handed on the right. However it's an individual choice, whatever suits you.

Answer 7

traditionally men wear watches on their left hand because in bygone times it was frowned upon to be left handed, so the watch was attatched to the left hand using the right hand to attach it. Women wore the watch on the right hand because political correctness hadnt been invented and they were considered to be an inferior breed (i do not agree, please dont hate me lol) now no one cares and to be honest just wear your watch on whatever arm it feels most comfortable on

Answer 8

I put the strap through a belt loop. I work with powdered metals and graphite and I also get king of greasy when I have to set up a machine. I like to keep my watchband clean so it doesn't make my wrist dirty later.

Answer 9

Mine is on my left wrist but it is a personal preference

Answer 10

I always thought a man wears his watch on the right hand as he wears his wedding ring on the right hand ring finger x x
