      As I’m left-handed the first thought I had when the Race was announced with the Digital Crown was “how’s that going to work for me”. I’m curious to know what left-handed owners of the Race think. Is the crown easy to use? Does it rub on sleeve cuffs and accidentally trigger? Is it a struggle to use with multiple layers of clothing or with gloves on? Do you end up obscuring the screen when using the crown?

          @far-blue I’m right handed, but I would prefer the crown and buttons on the left side of the watch. Actually only Polar did it right with the Ignite 3. Especially the buttons are quite hard to use and should be on the left side. I’m looking forward for the update.

            I’m frequently using the Race on the right wrist and find it very convenient to operate the buttons and crown with my left hand thumb.
            it works very well and I don’t notice any disadvantage.

              @freeheeler No problem for buttons but digital crown for me is almost impossible to use wearing clothes.

                @far-blue I have used Coros pro two years, did not flip the screen. I liked to use my left thumb. Now one week I used it in flipped mode, nah, do not like it 🙂
