Rolex crown question

I was just showing my brother how to set the time on his new date just. For some reason on my date just in order to turn the hands clock wise I have to turn the crown clock wise , my thumb going upwards. On his date just it's the opposite. Counterclockwise and thumb in the downward direction, does this make any sense why would that be? And Wich is the right way

On the newer model DJ41, the hands set counter clockwise.

Now...I think there may be some older models that set counter clockwise as well, but I don't really know much about the vintage watches.

You should be good to go. Nothing to worry about as the newer DJs set counterclockwise.
