Destro Tudor black bay
Got this sweet modification done to my tudor black bay today. Decided to flip the dial to wear it like a true lefty. What do you guys think??:) considering also doing it to my ND Rolex sub

If you like it congrats. I always thought lefties had a nice advantage wearing a watch on their right wrist in that the crown faces away from the wrist allowing for more comfortable range of motion.

I like it, don't know why, maybe cuz it's different. Is it possible on the Sub, I think I read that it isn't on 3130/35 movements, but easier on ETA because of the movement mounting points.

It's reversible, why not? Kinda of a cool way to customize without replacing any parts whatsoever.

Curious as to how it was done? Feet cut?

I think tools mentioned in another post the feet on the eta allow for rotating the dial 180 due to their mounting points, whereas the feet on the rolex movements don't but can be modified to do the same thing....
Looks great though! |

Very cool. Any idea if this is possible on the BBB with new in-house movement?

I like it. It would be interesting to see it on the ND Sub.

If this is the case then why not make all watches with the crown facing away from the wrist? As a left handed member (with no Destro in my collection) I've gotten used to the crown on the other side and, yes, it does offer greater freedom of movement IMHO.
