It's just one of those things that you should know, like putting the milk in tea last, jam on the scone first, putting your left shoe on first.
I'm pretty sure I don't
But then apparently I wear my watch on the wrong wrist (not that I've worn one for years n years; but apparently I was wearing it wrong

Re: utterly random picture thread.
My mum is a leftie, so I think that's why I wear it on my right hand - although now I'm forced to be ambidextrose it probably doesn't matter so uch !!!

Re: utterly random picture thread.
True, but when I used to wear watches it always annoyed me that the winder knob thing was on the hand-side, always used to dig in a bit. Must be better on the wrist-side.Count Steer wrote: Fri Sep 12, 2025 8:27 pmCertainly makes fastening a strap easier.MrLongbeard wrote: Fri Sep 12, 2025 7:49 pmWatches should be worn on the non dominant hand be it left or right, it makes spotting weirdo lefites easierNoggin wrote: Fri Sep 12, 2025 7:21 pm
