Do you shave your wrist!?
Been wondering this with the WC community. I’ve been shaving my watch wrist (left only) for 3-4 years now.
As a proud member of the Hairy Wrist Club, it just gets too much for certain watches.
It grows back, nobody cares about your wrist (let alone your watch), and I just cant be bothered what anyone thinks about my appearance 🤘

I don't shave there. My watch bracelet used to do it for me. Then I switched to leather straps and the Amazon has regrown since.
I got scolded on a Facebook watch group for shaving my wrist, but the funny thing is, I was new to watches and didn't even know that was a thing. Lol

You have my full support for restarting the trimming. (Granted looking at the poll # not sure my support is something to be valued 🤣).

It was just my regular wrist. The guy assumed I shaved it, but I don't. 🤣 I was so confused at the time not even knowing it was a thing and already I had an older guy in a hamilton group sending mad face emojis at me lol.
I am still waiting for my “Hairy wrist club” badge 🥲

Perhaps send @Max a before and after shaved pic 😜
I shave everything except my wrists.
I don't shave it, but I have trimmed it in the past 😆
If you are going to shave, take it all off. Otherwise, looks odd. At least to me.
Utilizing trimmers to decrease the length and thin it down would probably be better.
If thats you then be that. Like you said the watch is for you so. Not me but i will let a nice watch leave its mark... my uncle seiko integrated waffle strap does this but i let it because i like the look that much.

Ya that’s fair. 🫡
I usually do a bit of a fade/ gradient up from my wrist. But my whole arm is hairy as F 😂 Then my watch somewhat hides trimmed portion. Give it a couple of weeks and it’s basically back.
I am not hirsute enough to even think of this, but I find the prickly* uniform length growth that is the dead giveaway of the poor souls that resort to this to look absolutely awful. Trim to a plausible length and it may be unnoticeable to the casual observer.
*Who was the Instagrammer that recommended sending the cactus emoji to people that did this?
So disrespectful. Do you care what they think of your odor or manners or just screw everybody and do what you want?
I think I’m fairly well mannered and big fan of people who bathe 🫡
Just that when it comes to attire, appearance… Fashion or even standard practice is lost on me 🤷
I agree with the cat.
Thankfully we don’t where watches on our backs. Then I would be in trouble 😬
I will trim my arm hair with maybe a #5 in the summer as I get a ton of fliers in my pics which looks like cracks in the crystal 😂😂😂
Not my wrist, no. My arms aren't hairy enough for that. But I know how hair is annoying in other places, so you do you!

I hear ya about the “fliers” Cheers mate 🙌
No but I’ve thought about it 🤣
Grooming is key, you don't necessary have to shave it just mown the lawn.

Hey man, think about being part of just 3% of WC community 🥲
Just get a Q Timex. It will do it for you
When the trimmer comes out for my head it finds the rest
I thought this was a troll lol
Everyone knows a gold Rolex or Bond cosplay Omega wears best on super hairy arms
