Do you like to wear your watch tight or loose?

[rolex75216]

Curious if you like to wear your watch tight or loose and what you can do if you can't seem to get it just right?

[rmlovett1]

I like mine right in between tight and loose, just above the wrist bone

[Ravager135]

The correct answer is loose enough to get your pinky finger between the bracelet and your wrist, but I personally like my watches on the tighter side. I don't like the case slipping or moving when I turn my wrist. I've been told that wearing a watch too loose results in excess wear on the bracelet. Regardless, my preference is on the tighter side.

Try using the micro adjustments to get a better fit. Personally I like it on the tighter side. Just enough to leave the imprint of the oyster caseback :)

I can fit a pinky comfortably between my wrist and bracelet.

Depends on the watch.

I wear my Rolex watches (GMT, Dweller, and Daytona) loose. My Offshore tight. And my Royal Oaks and Nautilus somewhere in between.

Tighter side. I don't want it to move at all really with my wrist movement.

I like it right before tight. So, not too tight.

Ditto

[SparklesMcgraw]

My wrist continuously changes size so never get it perfect. Touch too tight when hot, touch too loose when cold. The easy link is a god send. Never had a glide lock

Depends on the watch. This bad boy flops around too much if it’s worn loose. I usually like them a little loose except for this one!

This ^.

Tight enough not to flap around like a lady's bracelet, but loose enough not to leave an imprint when I take it off. Basically tight/loose enough to fit my pinky finger between the bracelet and wrist.

[Mendota]

Medium, like my steak.

[Seddyspaghetti]

In between

[cts]

Watch loose and underwear tight.

[Geckobros]

Just to the point where it isn't sliding around. If I can't get a watch just right on the bracelet, I put it on a strap and punch holes if I have to.

[ExplorerI]

Leather/ nato straps I like a bit tighter so it’s not sliding around. Metal oyster style I like a bit looser. Easily slip a pinky in between.

[TswaneNguni]

cold days ..pinkie
hot days .. pinkie/ ring finger

Why Subs and DSSD are my favourite wearers ..glidelock .

[train-time]

Loose

[brucethemanlee]

in between

[Spoonage]

A bit on the tighter side for me. Can't stand my watch flopping around.

[Chewbacca]

Loose like my bladder control.

[zengineer]

Loose enough to move higher or lower with a slight push but tight enough to not rotate around the wrist unintentionally. For me that's less than being able to slide a finger in easily but in general not tight enough to leave even a temporary mark when removed.

I wear mine a bit tighter (no pinky between). I also wear mine below wrist bone next to wrist.

This is how I like mine. I didn't think there was a correct way. Far too many variables, not least the preferences of the people wearing them.
