right
as a child I always had a name bracelet on my right arm and when it was time to get a watch I replaced the bracelet but wore the watch on the same wrist as I was used to having sth on my right wrist.
Even though I am right handed I struggle to put on a watch on my left wrist - clearly poor motor skills.
The VC American could move me to change wrists though, but it wouldn't feel natural at all.

which wrist do you prefer and why
i was in at my AD today trying on a few new pateks , anyway i have always worn my watch on my right wrist and as im left handed. i took off my 5167 and tried on a 5980 (black face). My AD turned to me and said , try it on the left wrist it looks much bett...
Both and either
Hi Darren, I enjoy wearing watches on either wrist, or both at the same time, and swapping around. You get a slightly different view, and it ‘feels’ different to be carrying a watch on your dominant or non-dominant arm. Regarding wrist size, it is normal ...
But I don't recommend this ...
But I don't recommend doing a "Hayek". It felt heavy and uncomfortable to me, and I don't like watches slipping and sliding around, which is inevitable with this configuration. Regards Andrew...
Left from habit...
I am left handed (actually both handed, but born-leftie), and I wear it on the left wrist, totally out of habit when I started wearing watches as a kid... But I think it might be more comfortable on your dominant wrist because it is stronger, and so with ...
You raise some good points ...
It is easier to actuate a chronograph with your right hand, irrespective of dominance I believe. Although the alternative would be to get an Amvox II! But otherwise I usually make time and other settings with the watch off my wrist. Regarding the weight o...
Good idea!
I should hit the gym more often! The only sport I've been playing is tennis and that actually widen the "strength" difference between my 2 arms even more! Or I could train up my right arm by doing it Hayek-style on that side ;D Thanks Andrew and I wish yo...
to the aussies here
will the baggy greens get there arses kicked at the G this weekend?
Not a chance of that happening Darren
although the OZ team is at its most brittle and a bit low on confidence.
i would be hugely dissapointed
if our transtasman cousins said any different. Its like our all blacks losing i guess. Have you had a good look through your patek catalogue yet? regards darren
yes Darren and many thanks my friend.
I just have to dream for many .Merry X'mas and a Happy New Year to You and family.I read you are looking at the 5980 ?
IMHO
I don't think there is a convention.I am right handed and normally wears watch on left wrist but have tried it on my right.Because I am right handed and that is my dominant hand, I am more likely to hit my watch doing day to day things with my right hand,...
