which hand do you wear your watch------and do you wear it upside down or right side up
i used to wear it upside down but when i would reach for things it would get scratched. so now i wear it right side up. i used to have a nice casio, but i lost it kayaking. so i just got a cheap timex

Right arm and right side up. I am somewhat of an oddity because if I wear *any* watch on the left I break out. It's kinda weird.

Left arm and right side up. I used to wear it "upside down" as well, but changed it when Jake bought me a really nice watch.

Left arm, facing up...I have a really heavy-duty (and subsequently really expensive) Casio diver's watch so it could probably handle the beating it would take on the inside of my arm, but it's just too nice a watch for that kind of treatment

left wrist, right side up.............gotta love Fossil. I'm really glad that I bought mine in the U.S. before I came here, they're really really really really really expensive here in Europe.

Left arm, facing up as well. Though at the moment I don't wear one, I thon't know why, but in the summer tiome it really starts bugging me, as well as rings. The rings I do wear, but usually when I type I take them off. I just check the time on my cell phone.

Right arm, right side up... I'm a leftie, and it gets in the way on my left hand...
Last watch I had is one the military issued me (Luminox) but I lost it on an incident while unloading the robot...
The next one will be a cheapie... if at all...

In my pocket. I can't wear a watch on my wrist. It feels uncomfortable.

I haven't had a wallet or a watch for quite some time. Though when I used to wear a watch it was on my right wrist right side up.
I am right handed and have no idea why I wear it on my right hand but i do.

Left hand facing up. I thought the rule for guys was always wear it on the left?? Don't ask me where that came from..its just one of those things that "they" always say.
