Author Topic: Left handed watches  (Read 1322 times)

I will sell you a left handed watch for only 3x the value of a right handed watch...
That's actually a pretty common scam.

yeah, in general, yes
but if you flip the scissors, it will be the same thing, except for the other handI don't understand

I've never had a problem with it



these forgeters

to make a point.  eBay is the only way to get stuff done, man.  

but we saw your post already

there was no need to post it again

P.S. ebay is stuff



This guy has a watch for you.

I'm pretty sure watches don't have designated arms to be on

I'm pretty sure watches don't have a handedness, but I enjoy these watches: http://www.tokyoflash.com/en/watches/kisai/1/

I have the Night Vision watch. It works very well and it's great for getting attention and stuff.

Is a left handed one a watch you wear on the left hand? Because that's how I wear mine, and I'm right handed. But it works fine on either hand.

...

the forget is a left-handed watch

you can wear a watch on either wrist

a watch isn't like a pair of scissors, it looks the same on each arm.

Technically watches should be worn on your non-dominant hand. The crown (the knob) should be accessible without any awkward arm movements, and/or without covering the watch itself.



scissors can be used with either hand as well...

You're wrong.
Most scissors are best-suited for use with the right hand, but left-handed scissors are designed for use with the left hand. Because scissors have overlapping blades, they are not symmetric. This asymmetry is true regardless of the orientation and shape of the handles: the blade that is on top always forms the same diagonal regardless of orientation. Human hands are also asymmetric, and when closing, the thumb and fingers do not close vertically, but have a lateral component to the motion. Specifically, the thumb pushes out and fingers pull inwards. For right-handed scissors held in the right hand, the thumb blade is further from the user's body, so that the natural tendency of the right hand is to force the cutting blades together. Conversely, if right-handed scissors are held in the left hand, the natural tendency of the left hand would be to force the cutting blades laterally apart. Furthermore, with right-handed scissors held by the right-hand, the shearing edge is visible, but when used with the left hand, the cutting edge of the scissors is behind the top blade, and one cannot see what is being cut.


these forgeters
wtf
those look uncomfortable, period
I've never used a pair like that

I've only used pairs like this

easily fitting for either hand

That doesn't mean it needs to be left handed.

I'm a lefty.

which means it needs to be designed for a left handed person.


A left handed watch.



A watch with the crown on the left side. Not the right side.

1. Why are you adjusting your watch while it's on your wrist? It's just as hard to reach the knob against your forearm than it is to reach it against the back of your hand. Take the watch off to access the knob like a sane person.

2. Why are you adjusting your watch so often that this is a problem? I adjust my watch like, what, every few months when it gets a little bit off?

It's faster and easier. No it is not, it's easier if you don't have to reach over the watch. You shouldn't have to go through the trouble of taking the watch off to adjust it.

I never said I adjusted it often, in fact I never said I have a watch. I don't care how you do it.









I did not start this thread for a lecture on proper watch etiquette.

I came here for suggestion for left handed watches.

What is it with you people and criticism?

Because there's no such thing as a left handed watch.

There's no such thing as a left-handed watch. Go buy a watch.

No, seriously, what kind of city do you live in where you think you only have luxury watches and watches for kids?

Where the hell'd you come up with that?



I'm looking for a watch online. Not my local town.

And yes. There is a difference. Google it for god's sake.
