This has probably been covered at least a dozen or more times somewhere, but I don't even know where to start to look....

What wrist do you wear your watch on, left or right? ... and why? I wear my watch on my left wrist because I'm right handed for comfort. I have worn a watch on my right wrist for quite some time, but that was years ago.

I dont like the crown digging in to the back of my hand like it does on the left hand - so I chose the right

This could be a poll, I suppose.

The other question could be: Watch positioned on top of your wrist on on the bottom?

Some guys (ex military I think) have the watch on the under side of their wrist, presumbaly to keep it out of harm's way.

Left, top for me.

There's two reasons for some unnamed people. 1) no glare on the top of the wrist 2) can see it without taking rifle from the ready.

On the right because I am left handed. Now let's ask if you wear your watch fore or aft of your wristbone.

Same here, and I am also left handed so it is way more comfortable when I am writing
