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.
:shock: :shock:

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 :lol: :lol: :lol:

Certainly makes fastening a strap easier. :thumbup:

+ I suppose, makes the watch less likely to get damaged.

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.
