Curious if anyone here is a fan of Destro watches? These watches that have the crown on the oppostie side of the case than most watches do.

I have to say that in general they are not my thing, but of course some brands are known for having models like this, such as Panerai. In some cases people are left handed, and wear the watch in the right wrist, but in other cases it's still worn on the left, and the crown is facing towards your elbow. I think in some cases where the crown is large and might dig into your wrist it can be a practical solution, but I think many do it because they like the look.

Here is the creation of a Destro that I just finished this past week....here is the subject as received:



An IWC Aquatimer, and sorry but this is the only photo I took before starting on the the watch, and it has reflections from the skylights in the solarium...

So the watch was in for a full service, and since this uses an ETA 2892A2, and the dial feet on this movement are symmetrical, it was a pretty easy mod. The dial was simply rotated 180 degrees, and a new date indicator was installed. If you don't use a new date indicator, and simply rotate the dial, this is what you get:



Here is the watch fully disassembled (except I forgot to disassemble the automatic before taking the photo - it was disassembled for cleaning of course):



And here is the final result:



I'm not sure where my client obtained the date indicator that was reprinted to line up with the window at 9 o'clock, but it worked out very well.

He also sent me an Omega Seamaster GMT (Great White) that has already been converted, but the date disk was not the best printing job, so he sent me a new one to replace it.

I have to say even handling the watches after the change requires a rethink - winding, setting and reading the time - not used to these so I find myself looking at the watch upside down all the time. LOL...

Anyone here a fan of these?

Cheers, Al

I think destro watches are kind of cool because, while the destro feature is a little silly, it is still a feature that in some way relates to function, unlike WG surrounds on indices or PCLs.

To me it seems logical on an auto. You don't have to wind it and only have to set and change date
when necessary . I like the idea.

I like the idea of the crown on the elbow side. I do find if I wear my SD loose, the crown will dig into the top of my wrist. A pointed out already, with an automatic movement you only need to unscrew the crown to change the time or date occasionally and I do that off my wrist anyway.

I think the point about having to get your head around it being 'backwards' for winding and setting would be enough to put me off, as it would do my head in as well. They look fine to me though, and I agree it would be nice to never have the crown dig into the back of your hand. I like the bezel in the last pic in the OP a lot. In fact, that IWC diver is a very cool-looking watch, full-stop.

I wear them on my right wrist so I always liked the destro idea.

Like you Archer, I always turn the watch upside down for winding lol.

Time You get Yourself a Left Handed Rolex than :thumbsup:


The IWC looks cool and great for Left Handed wearers, I couldn't live with the upside down situation:thinking:

but you live down-under mate!

Good one, Mate :lol::lol::lol:

Guess that's true :dummy:

I've had a couple of destro's, and truthfully, it does take a moment to figure out how to adjust the date and time. I simply held the watch with the dial facing me but upside down and that did the trick. Still seemed odd though ...

I used to do the same thing with this "left handed" Hamilton that I used to own.

Tim, that one has enough crowns and pushers for both wrists :lol::rofl::lol::rofl::lol::rofl::lol:
