Crown Position

Post by ezcheese » Wed Feb 17, 2010 2:40 pm

OK, let's have a poll on the preferred crown position on the case with these specs:

42mm diameter
22mm lug width
external bezel
hooded lugs

Do you prefer the crown to be at 3:00 or 4:00?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

4 o'clock

as if its even a choice! 4 position is always the most comfy and best looking IMO.

i wonder if it would be a problem with a 6 o'clock date position? :think:

4:00 for me..... although it's not the end of the World if it's at 3:00..... I just think having it at 4:00 makes it look a bit cooler :thumbsup:

Crown position

I voted 4.

I would have chosen 10 o'clock position were it offered.

I voted 4, but 3 is fine too. Not a deal breaker either way.

It is not a deal breaker with only one exception. I have one timepiece in my collection that the crown is at 4:00, but it is so close to the lug that it makes it difficult to wind. If there is enough room to wind easily, I am fine with either one.

Good point. Four is good for me. Can we omit the date?
