I've noticed that several members sometimes wear two watches at once. It seemed like a good way to keep my autos wound so I gave it a shot.

I found that only one bracelet would even close over my right wrist; and my hand turned purple. I measured and found that on the left I'm 6 7/8 and my right is 7 3/8!

A full 1/2 inch seems like alot to me.. So, am I a freak or what?

You must be a right hande guy: That's normal.
And certainly got a longer soulder on the right and a longer arm on the right side also if you have intensive use of your arm.
To take an extreme exemple: On skeletons from Roman gladiators found in excavations, anthropologists observed that one arm(most commonly the right) could be until 5 cm longer than the other one( assumed as the left...)
It's a long adaptation from the skeleton and articulations, pushed by muscles who create this difference after time.
In other words, a natural consequence to years of intensive sword fighting from one hand to reach longer forward.
Muscles and cartilages grow bigger there offcourse.
No beeing is symmetric.
