I'm thin so I can wear it loose but it will still stay above the wrist bone because my wrist is skinnier above than at the joint.

Above.

Any lower, it'd be across my hand.

I'm not sure what is above or below.
I wear mine between the bone and the hand though.

Since I'm not sure what is above or below, those posts that don't better define the position make little sense to me... Call me dumb.

Bump. Been putting it just above wrist bone (closer to hand) though as the day wears on it tends to roll a little down. The best fit is right in the morning when the bracelet is nice and cold.

I always wear it below. Feels really funny above. I never knew I was in the minority.

I wear it away from my hand.

I like it snug like it's part of my wrist.

Usually below. I like my watch to be loose enough to where it can move above or below my wrist bone if I want it too. I know some people that like it skin tight to their wrist, but to me that puts pressure on the bracelet and stretches it faster.

Between the bone and the hand. Never ever thought to wear it above the wrist bone.

I always wear mine above the wrist bone. IMO, wearing lower puts much greater stress and wear on the links, pins and clasps.

Above the wrist on my Speedy Tuesday and Rolex Daytona. Below sometime lets crown and pushers dig into back of hand. Adjustable glide link clasp on Speedy lets me tweak to perfection and is highly recommended!
