The Correct Way to Wear Men's Watches

Original Watch ArticlesPublished
As a wrist-worn instrument for keeping time, wearing a men's watch in various social settings usually signifies a strong sense of time and a rigorous manner. Conversely, those who do not wear a men's watch, or who frequently ask others for the time, are often scoffed at, as this usually indicates a poor grasp of time.

Conversely, those who do not wear a men's watch, or who frequently ask others for the time, are often scoffed at, as this usually indicates a poor grasp of time. In formal social situations, men's watches are often treated like jewellery. For men who usually only wear a ring as jewellery, a watch is valued even more highly, with some even stressing that: "A watch is not just a man's piece of jewellery, but his most important piece of jewellery." In Western countries, watches, pens, and lighters were once called the "three treasures" of an adult male, items that no man would be without for a moment.

  Interestingly, the key pulse points for men and women are located on different hands: the left hand for men and the right hand for women. Medical professionals believe this phenomenon is due to men's blood flowing from the heart's extremities to the left side, whereas for women it is the opposite. This leads to an important conclusion: if a man wears a men's watch on his left hand, regardless of the strap material—gold, silver, plastic, or leather—it could affect normal heart function. Women, luckily, do not need to alter their habit of wearing watches on the left hand.

  Normal Wear of Men's Watches

  You get up and put on your watch at roughly the same time every morningmen's watches, work a normal day at the workplace, take off the watch when you get home, place it in the watch box according to your usual routine, and repeat the same steps the next day—this is what is called normal wear. If you wear it today, but take a break and leave it off tomorrow, it is no longer normal wear. Under these conditions, the watch's variance will change due to shifts in wearing habits; however, this does not mean the stability of its movement has altered, as comparisons of stability must be made under identical conditions. I believe friends who understand Swiss chronometer testing methods will be very clear on this point.
