Great choice, congratulations.

Congrats, about centering on the pic it seems to me the watch is too far up the arm, I know it's not supposed to be too close to the hand but not so far, if it isn't 10% centered but still comfortable I don't really see a problem

My Ulna ball/bone is huge so I have to wear my watches behind it. If not the strap/bracelet will be so loose that it flaps all over the place. My only other option is to size all watches to sit between the Ulna bone and my hand which will not allow my hand to rotate back towards my forearm.

You see what I am saying. My forearms are rather long. I'm 6'2-3/4" so it doesnt look funny (to me but I'm all ears and don't won't to look funny so speak up by all means lol) if wear my watch behind the Ulna bone. I know exactly what you mean and some people really wear their watch way too far up on the wrist.


Here's a shot as far as I could reach while still seeing the camera box. Does it look like it's still too far up on wrist when can see most of my forearm?

Anatomy. Gotta love to hate it at times. We are all different. But I think I will have the most comfort and best eye appeal wearing it like this. It will still peep out from under a cuff when I bend my arm and it sits great right there. Who knows it could be ugly sitting there to some but I'd rather be able to move my hand at the keyboard than please everyone as long as it doesn't look over the top like half way up my arm or close to looking like that. I'm all ears and thick skinned so won't hurt my feeling!

Here it is above the Ulna. It's tight up against my hand but wearable.

The two following pics show the limited range of motion I have with it above the Ulna.

Any thought? Maybe could wear it on actual wrist (above Ulna) to a more formal event but unless there are more saying I look like "THAT GUY" that wears his watch like a wedgie I'll be ok below the Ulna.

Again I'm a big boy and "I can handle the truth" lol

We all can wear watches just like we want. Just don't take the Expert advice seriously.

Lol I hear ya buddy! Loud and clear!

I don't think it looks like a wedgie and have always had to wear my watch over 36mm so that they rested on the Ulna but would like constructive criticism if needed.

The only correct place to wear it is on your arm! The rest is nonsense! A style guru may comment that a watch that wears too loose and dangles is s bit naff or reversing it so the watch is in the inner wrist is a bit pointless but as long as it's on your wrist (not bicep or forearm) it's fine!

Agreed! I've just never had anyone say anything about me wearing my watches too high. Kinda had me second guessing myself I guess. I've always thought they looked great right above my wrist and never thought twice about it until he said that.

Thanks
