Greetings, Nikkidix.


Thank you for consulting the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you are inquiring if your Apple Watch can be worn on your upper arm. I’m happy to clear this up for you. 


The sensors will only work if you wear your Apple Watch on the top of your wrist. You can learn more about wearing your Apple Watch, here: Wearing your Apple Watch - Apple Support


Best wishes.
