I use to do it the way this guy did it I went back to the original. I originally did it to stop accidentally emergency call but somehow I still hit it a few times with the way he did it just not as much. I can’t where a case on my anymore I got mine good plated defeats the whole purchase of purchase that extra gold played job showing it off.

To each their own. I just tried this and found the dial would also hit my forearm the other way, but either way I barely noticed. While I did find the dial slightly easier to hit with my thumb, I found it much harder to hit the button above it because the dial partially blocked my big thumb from it in that orientation.

thank you so much for making this video, i just received a iwatch 3 for my birthday and it drives me crazy that every time i move my hands the stop watch goes off. big help!!!!

I'm often bumping up against the crown and it's annoying. I was thinking of wearing it on my right wrist as a result. Thanks for pointing out you don't have to do that; you can change it within settings.

Gonna get the series 3 in a couple of weeks and its my first apple watch ever..I feel like you are really reasonable and I just might do this from the start, so it basically is not weird to me and get used to it that way! Thanks for another great video x

I actually had a question, I wanted to know what kind of bands do you use on your Apple Watch, while at the gym ? I only ask because I heard some people find it uncomfortable to have a leather or metal band while working out and find a plastic or fabric mesh material is more breathable on you wrist

I wore mine upside down so when im washing hand the mic and the digital crown will not get splashed of water which i think will prevent water coming inside the mic , because i guess only the speaker grill has the water ejector

Thank you! I didn’t know you could do this and I’m always accidentally pressing the digital crown! 🙌🏼
