It will not be very accurate on the wrist. It was not made for the Wrist.

When I'm at home I quite often wear the One on my wrist. I find it more comfortable than on a waistband if I'm sitting or cleaning etc. However, it's not at it's most accurate on the wrist, I get a lot of 'false steps' where really that was just a big arm movement, not a step!

 

So, yes, you can. But for more accurate results try for a pocket or even a bra. Ankles give inaccurate resuls too.

The Flex suffers from the same issue, so I'm wondering if there is really THAT big a difference in the calibration.

 

I love the One I "inherited" from my son (who refused to use it), but I love the convenience of wearing my Flex on my wrist.

 

I'm seriously wondering if they could make a wrist band for the One, and if it would make THAT big a difference on the accuracy.
