Question

Does etiquette tell you which hand a man should wear his watch?

Answer 1

No.

Answer 2

Etiquette does not dictate this, comfort and practicality do.

Generally speaking, most right handed people wear their watch on their left hand, and most left handed people wear it on their right.  For me it is more comfortable that way, I think it has to do with your wrist/arm not resting against your watchband when you write.

You can choose to wear your watch whichever way you prefer.

Answer 3

No, that has nothing to do with it.

A watch is worn on the wrist it is most comfortable to do so. Most people where them on the opposite arm that they write with. I'm right handed and I wear mine (when I wear one, that is) on my left wrist. It's a matter of preference and in no way dictated by rules of society.

Answer 4

No, on either wrist is fine. This is one of the few things not dictated by etiquette rules.
