MagicBands and Watches

[SuperRob]

Looking for some opinions. From all of the pictures I've seen, it seems like the MagicBand readers are on your left-hand side when you go to scan, so you'll logically want to wear your MagicBand on your left wrist.

But that's the same wrist I wear my smartwatch on.

What do you folks in this conundrum do? Put your watch (or your MagicBand) on the opposite wrist? Go without the watch? Double up for that oh-so classic look?

I wear the band AND the watch on the left arm. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I don;t have a smartwatch, I put my Magic Band on my right wrist, but I do with they had an inexpensive timepiece slider for the MB, then I'd just wear the MB.

The only reason why I mentioned that it was a smartwatch is because I get my phone's notifications on it, so I can leave my phone in a bag or something. That way, if a ride that I've FP'd goes down, I'll get the email notification right on my wrist. (My phone's battery sucks, so I plan to leave it in a bag whenever I don't need it.)

I didn't even wear watches until I got this thing for Christmas. Now I only take it off when I shower (even though it's waterproof).

Actually they are on both sides......2 and 2. There is plenty of room to get either wrist over to them.
I wore mine on my right wrist and entered at which ever had the shorter line. No problems at all

Agreed - they are on both sides everywhere except for the counter service restaurant scanners. I wore mine on my left arm and my wife wore hers on her right to make it faster to move through FP+ scanners.

After several days, I ended up wearing both on my left arm too!

Readers are on both sides at entrances to parks and rides. DH and I wear our watches on opposite sides and therefore MBs on opposite sides, so we just arrange ourselves so we approach the reader on the correct side for us. DS is much more bendy so he goes wherever and just contorts himself for the reader.
