For sure I give props to Tudor for being different making a left hander, but I have zero interest with the crown being on the left. Overall though it has a great style so if it was also later available crown on right I would have interest for sure.

As for the Pelagos, I'm not interested at this time in another diver, but I certainly do like both the Pelagos and the Black Bay.

As for where the crown in placed, it's not an issue for me.

I don't use the crown with the watch on my wrist anyway.
Well, I don't mean circulation-cutting tight. I just mean snug enough not to fall below the wrist bone, because flopping around impedes activity.

I'm digging it! Although not enough to want to own one.

don't hate it, but I wouldn't consider buying for 2 main reasons:

1) no reason for me to buy an LHD
2) don't like titanium bracelets. They don't have the right heft, the right feel or the right sound, and its too dull a metal

This is the one I would have picked!! I think it looks great but cannot imagine I would choose to wear it ahead of my Red Sub.

I love the uniqueness of it. I can't imagine this oddball of a watch not having some sort of value in the future especially when compared to the sea of plain jane 5&6 digit subs out there. My AD will get a few of these and I have no doubt at least one will sit in his case until I decide I want it. Then I may buy depending on the deal and how my year is going.

Upon release I was somewhat interested. My AD had one at the store, but already sold. I had to pick up a strap so I went by and looked at it. In the metal it is an impressive watch. I own a Blue Pelagos and really like it. The left side crown, while on the left side doe not protrude like many of the Destro's I have seen before. Going with cream markers and the red on the dial and date wheel sealed it for me. I might wait until Basel to see what else comes out that I might want but when my AD get another watch I might buy it. By the way I plan on wearing it on my left wrist.

assuming the case is symmetrical - why is this watch such a big deal. At most all you would need to do is change the date wheel and rotate the dial 180 degrees
