I have a friend in China, so tracking his time zone ended up that way.

Well, if you go forward, and then backward, it actually cancels out the wear...

I used to keep my bezel upside down as well. It made more sense for me as a proper representation of day/night.

Just like many use the blue to reference the day and the black reference the night, it made more sense to me that noon would be at the top of the watch and midnight would be represented on the bottom.

Purely for quick reference.

I would definitely do this, if my bezel were not of the fixed variety.
