Men and bracelets - On which hand to wear?

It took me long enough to figure out how to wear my wedding ring and now I have to decide on what hand to wear my new men's bracelet. Suggestions anyone?

Wherever it feels most comfortable. Try wearing the bracelet on your right wrist for a day, then switch the bracelet over to your right wrist. Go with whichever feels most comfortable - and whichever gets you the most compliments..

Most people wear their bracelet on the opposite hand than the one which they use most. In other words, right handed people wear their bracelet on their left hand, left handed wear their bracelet on the right. It actually makes sense. The hand you use the most is most likely to touch other objects and surfaces, and you don't want your bracelet to be damaged accidentally or limit your hand's movement.

You can wear the bracelet on whatever hand you want - there really aren't any protocols. If you wear a watch every day though you might want to wear the bracelet on the opposite hand so people can see it more distinctly!

Unlike rings, bracelets don't have any rules regarding the wearing location. If you wear a watch, then I suggest you wear your men's bracelet on the other hand, otherwise, why don't you just decide by yourself?

I'm a guy, I'm right handed, I don't wear a watch, but still I wear a bracelet on my right hand. Somehow it feels more comfortable. Maybe it has to do with the fact that used to wear a watch on my left hand, so I got used to having my watch on my left hand and any other ornament, like a bracelet on my right hand.
