right wrist, I'm left-handed. I've always worn my watch like this, wearing it on my left wrist is uncomfortable.

The clasp is slightly scratched though, but only because I use the mouse with my right hand, so it drags sometimes. I just got myself a mousepad at work, just to keep my watch off of the desk. At home I take my watch off when I'm on the computer.

no, you wear your watch on your left hand regardless as watches are designed to be worn that way. Note the crown on the right side of your watch so you can wind/adjust it while it is on your wrist.
Well, yeah, that makes sense, but how often are we adjusting our clocks?

I guess I never feel it as an issue because I usually have my watch off when I'm at home and need to change it for DST. If it isn't, all I have to do is take it off.

This is obviously a minor thing, but for some reason I've always worn it on my right hand and prefer that.

what's annoying is when someone asks you the time whilst you are holding a brew :)

i tell them to find a damn clock, as I am not one.
