Left wrist users - Digital Crown on left side

[tennisboygr]

Anyone here use the Apple Watch on their left wrist, but with the Digital Crown on the left side of the Watch face?

 

[Syk]

Yes I do.
No choice really if you wear a golf glove or weight lifting gloves. I had the watch the other way and the crown was always hitting the end of my gloves.

 

[BaddAdvice]

Yup, been wearing it that way since the S0.

Mine is the same scenario, except I wear mine on my right Wrist. I Find I have a lot less inadvertent touches with the power button or digital crown.

MY wife wears it like that and asked me to try it. I liked it but eventually went back to the standard setup - I guess I like the idea of the traditional crown position.

 

[tennisboygr]

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll give it a try and see how I like it.

I had to put it that way because of my cicling glove always push buttons. I used to it, but I don't like how Watch looks like. I like it much better in standard position. So I decided today to put crown to right side and I will adjust my glove little bit.

I switched to this setup because of the inadvertent crown pushes when lifting. It's definitely less convenient when purposely using the buttons but the nuisance of Siri asking me what I said in the middle of a set of bench was worse.

I wear it this way. Find it easier to use the crown with my thumb.

Same. I originally switched because flexing my wrist often caused the back of my hand to press the crown. Works better this way.

Tried it but, switched back to Crown on right. Best thing to do is try it on the left side. You can always switch it back.

Right handed, left wrist wear. I use crown in standard right side position but have been thinking about switching. I'm a casual runner who sweats like a whore in church. I constantly find my crown gummy and have to rinse it. I think in my config the sweat runs under the watch and centrifugal force of arm swings (and gravity) flows it right into the crown. Been thinking if crown is on the left it won't get the same flow of sweat.

Worth a try!

Here ya go

....perhaps it's just me but the Apple Watch looks like its upside down in this configuration?!!

Several reasons why I wear it like this.
If I bump it it makes contact on the flat side, doesn’t get snagged on clothing and Apple Pay activation is easier. Oh and operating the Digital Crown with my thumb is also easier.

I never even thought about until I got the wife a S3 for Chrimbletime and she found the mode and started wearing it that way - now both my S3 and S1 are in the same mode - it's kinda fun (and it hides the red dot on the crown on m3 S3 LTE).

lmao. Sining, sining and sininig

i wear it on the and have the crown on the left. Its easier for me access siri and use right hand operation more comfortable.
