The reason why KimuTaku wears his watch on his right wrist

1： 腕ひしぎ十字固め(東日本) 2013/09/15(日) 14:56:21.93 ID:XFp7+0FU0

On Takuya Kimura's radio program Kimura Takuya no What's UP SMAP!, he was asked by a listener, "Why do you wear your watch on your right wrist?", to which he replied, "I'm also wearing it on my right wrist now, why are you wondering about that?".

Kimura then proceeded to explain, "Wearing the watch on the right wrist is a symbol of peace". It apparently refers to when a sniper is aiming for his target, he keeps his right hand's index finger on the trigger while checking the time on the watch on the inner side of his left wrist. But if the sniper were to wear his watch on his right hand, he'd have to let go of the trigger momentarily in order to check the time, which will prevent him from firing the rifle.

Kimura has always been wearing his watch on his right wrist but became more conscious of it after learning about its significance to a sniper. But he says that there are still times where he wears it on his left in dramas to match the other actors.

右利きで左手がどんくさいと着けるのたいへんじゃない？

左手もそこそこ動くようにわざわざ訓練してるんかしら

Won't it be difficult if you're right handed and you wore your watch on your left that's weak?
Could it be that he's training his left hand so that it'd move freely?

People just assume that it'll be inconvenient if you put it on your strong hand, but when you actually do it, it doesn't get in the way of anything.

でも町中に行くと｢うわぁ…あいつ、キムタクを意識してるわ…きもっ…｣と思われるのだろうな

In my case, I use the pen with my left hand so I wear my watch on my right. 

But if I go outside, will people think, "Uwaa... that guy's imitating KimuTaku, so gross..."?

Symbol of peace? But we're not even living in a society ruled by guns.
I do think that it's much more convenient if you wear it on your left wrist.

If you've got long hair, people will say you're imitating KimuTaku.
If you've got long hair with a mustache, they'll say you're imitating Johnny Depp or Odagiri.
Can't be helped, that's how the world is.

He should have just said, "Nothing really, just because I feel like it", instead of saying something unnecessary.
Well, he's in an industry where they have to create this image, but I think it stinks.
He's already 40 for crying out loud.

カタカナで書けばいいのにLove SeanSとか。

I think KimuTaku is in a position where girls would scream for him even if he doesn't do anything. But there are a lot of times when he tries to act too cool, and it just works out the opposite way for him. Like "Love SeanS"* which he could've just written in Katakana.

＞右腕にはめているそうだ。

じゃあスナイパー由来じゃないんじゃん

最初に右腕にはめた理由は「なんとなく」でOK？

>Kimura has always been wearing his watch on his right wrist, but became more conscious of it after learning about its significance to a sniper.

So it isn't even about the sniper.
Which means it's ok to assume that his initial reason for putting it on his right arm is just because he felt like it?
