Which Watch Band Should I Use With My 180 Watch?

I just received my 180 Watch. (See pic below). I tried the watch on and the watch band was incredibly uncomfortable. It would be very difficult for me to concentrate with it. So I want to know what are comfortable watch bands I could purchase in order to replace the putrid watch band that I currently possess.

You should remove the watch and put it in front of you while testing, anyway.

The thing is, the frame is rather small. And, indeed, if I remove it from my hand and place it adjacent to my test, I will have difficulty seeing the time.

This, however, raises the question: where should I place the watch? What position will provide me with the best viewing point?

I put my watch front and center, above the top of the page. I can just glance at it. Having to look at it on your wrist is awkward and time consuming. You will probably burn 12-18 seconds unnecessarily over the course of a section with it on your wrist.

there were some good answers to this question in the other 180 watch thread.

Dre, you're one of my favorite posters on TLS. I am forever in your debt due to the knowledge that I acquired in the pencil thread that you started.

But the 180 waTTTch is TTT.

I like to attach my watch to my #2 pencil (usually a Dixon Ticonderoga, though sometimes I like to live a little dangerously and use Staples' generic brand).

For real, don't wear the watch. If you adjust the band and latch it shut, most watches can be stood up like a tiny desk clock. That's TCR.

Wear the watch on your opposite hand.
