Which wrist is a woman supposed to wear her watch?

I am just curious as to which wrist a woman should be wearing her watch. I see some have it on their left and others on their right. Thank you.

    Generally you wear your watch on the opposite side that you write with. If you are right handed, then you wear it on the left, if you are left handed, then you wear it on the right. The reason this is done is so that you can still have your dominant hand free and still check what time it is on your watch. There is no hard and fast rule though. You can actually wear it on whatever wrist that you want and find the most comfortable. @--->---

    People usually wear a watch on their non dominent hand so it doesn't keep hitting things during the day. Right handed people wear it on their left wrist, left handed people wear it on their right wrist.

    There is no "supposed". People tend to wear their watch on their non-dominant hand so it doesn't get knocked so much.

    I'm right handed, so I wear my watch on my left wrist. My wife is left handed and wears hers on her right.

    If right-handed, the watch is worn on the left wrist; if left-handed, the watch is worn on the right wrist.

    Generally left but if you are left handed you might prefer your right.

    probably depends on whether you are right or left handed. I wear it on my left (I'm right handed)
