I am curious what others find here:

When you set the time on your 312, what direction does the minute hand move (clockwise or counter clockwise) in when you turn the crown? In other words, what direction do you have to turn the crown to advance the minute hand clockwise?

Umm.. I just checked. I turn the crown away from me = clockwise minute hand movement.

Why? What's going on with yours, Bryan?

Mine is the same. It's interesting because my 243 is reverse and I just watched a video on YouTube with a BP and it was the same as my 243 (crown twisting toward me for clockwise minute hand movement).

Wonder why they do that??

There may be some minor design changes as time progresses... and probably different methods of winding for newer series?
