I'm asking because if I wear it on my dominant hand it feels weird for me. That's why it feels better on my right hand.
I tried it on my left arm and it was bothersome to me at least. I have my wallet set up on my left back pocket, my cell in my front left pocket and it usually gets in the way of that. Only time it bothers me on my right wrist is when I'm using the mouse.

Standard procedure here.
Most people are taught to not wear their watch on their dominant hand.

Write with the left, phone front left, wallet, back right
What is this taught to wear a watch that you speak of?
Granted in my family, I only had an aunt that was a lefty and everyone else was right-handed. Probably where some of my tendencies come from. I remember she had to show me how to tie my shoe when I was little because my family couldn't get that they had to show me in reverse
I swing a bat and golf clubs right-handed, but I throw with the left and use a glove for the right hand too
Me and the wife are both lefties....10% of the world

Example: When I speak "taught to" I remember when I went to school when I was young, I was literally taught to wear my watch on the non-dominant hand so I could check the time while still writing. It came in hand during examination periods.

I know, I was just joking about the being taught thing....but....nobody ever told me that I should put it on my non-dominant hand. Never really bothered until someone pointed it out to me either. I hate how that happens, lol

Xmas gift finally came in. Bae got me the Steinhart
Ocean Black. Told her to get it with the ceramic bezel
but they sent her an email saying they dont fit anymore
And that it needs to be ordered separately, but Im not
sure if they fitted it anyway. As I cant really tell by looking.

Beautiful watch.
I was pretty set on getting a Hamilton Field Khaki as my next watch, but I'm leaning more toward's a Pilot's watch now. I thought about going with Orient because it's inexpensive and I like the look enough, but I'm pretty sure it'll either be a Laco or a Steinhart. I still do want the Hamilton, but I'm really interested in a B-Uhr style/design.

I prefer the Steinhart, but I haven't decided.

Go with the Steinhart. I've always like the pilot watches also, but went with the Hamilton Khaki this time around.

Ticino Pilot watch for under $200 with the Miyota 9015 movement. Impossible to beat at that price point. Stowa/Laco/Archimede for Pilot watches under $1k, not a fan of Steinhart though.

looks as if you have the standard aluminum bezel, you need to order the ceramic one from the accessories sections on the website, and then have a local watch maker install it for you or try and do it yourself

Top of the dial on the ceramic bezel isnt as pronounced
As the pip on the standard aluminum. I'm gonna wait
A bit to see how it holds up before I order it, as it doesnt
Look bad as is.

My dad gifted me this Hamilton Thin-o-matic for Christmas. Was his dad's watch originally. Still working on getting a band so have been using a NATO for the time being.
View media item 1327127After doing a bit of research I believe this is the watch, any other info would be great. Via 1968-1969 Hamilton Catalog.
