The loop band on my watch came with the magnet end on the bottom so that it wraps in an upward direction (counter-clockwise) at the back of my left wrist. I switched it because for me it makes it easier to make small adjustments with the magnet looping from the top. I can easily slip my thumbnail into the small recessed area on the magnet end and lift it up to tighten or loosen slightly. Anyone else make this change?

When i had my ML, i did this also...somehow felt better on the wrist this way (or maybe i was just imagining things).

Seriously? One would have to look very closely, and know how these watches come from the factory, to notice and difference in the way the bands look. I find it hard to believe one would even have a preference based on looks alone.

I'm saying I think it looks dumb, not Joe or Sasha

To me, it's noticeable, maybe not to others

I guess I'm just stunned that anyone could even have a preference over something so trivial. Don't worry, though, you already sounded rude.
We all have our things
Sure every enthusiast of something cringes at the smallest things

Didn't even know you were the OP, and I don't care how you wear your watch, you paid/recieved it, as I stated earlier these were my opinions, but you asked does anyone do this and I said no and why

No, it looks dumb that way

It looks odd, it looks out of place
For the 4th damn time, hate to sound rude but I've said why multiple times

Why is it every thread your rude and disrespectful to other forum members on here? Literally.

OP, if it makes it easier for the Milanese loop to operate that way, there is nothing wrong with that.

Hey look, exactly what I said

And not sure how saying the way it looks is rude or disrespectful, I'm talking about the Watch not the OP

Also not sure why you quoted all of those post, 3/4 of those are not being rude, and only 1 because I said why I thought that way and I kept getting asked the same question

And another thing not sure how I was rude on the iPhone 5s Post Homescreen thread, maybe you can explain to me?

Rude and as soon as someone gives it back to him, he reports it to the moderator. I think perhaps it is the size of the thimble if you get my drift.

I only reported your post because you insulted me personally
And are you still talking about the size of my brain with the thimble thing?

No, not your brain-got to give you credit for making me laugh just now.
Can you clarify the statement then? Not sure I understand the thimble thing

And you can be just as rude back, but personal insults are a ❌

I'm not going to derail this thread any further. I reported your behavior and your insulting comments to other forum members on here.

I don't think one way or the other looks "bad or dumb", but I do have a preference for the looped part to be on the inside and not the outside. Trivial, yes, but I prefer how it looks and I'm more accustomed to pulling the long end of a watch strap away from me, like the classic buckle, to tighten it.
