Watch structure A watch consists of a meter head and a strap (clasp). Among them, the parts of the rice head include: movement, case, bottom cover, mirror, characters (often called dial), hands, handles (also called push) and order (required by some tables).
Extended data:
The crown (also called the handle) on a watch is usually located on the right side of the case. This setting is not without reason, but is designed by watchmakers according to people's accustomed hands. Because most people in the world are right-handed (left-handed people only account for about 10% of the world population), they are always right-handed, writing with their right hands and carrying heavy objects.
Therefore, watchmakers assume that watches should be worn on the left hand to reduce the chance of collision (you know, watches used to be an expensive luxury); Then put the crown on the right side of the case, because when the watch is in the left hand, it is relatively convenient to twist the crown or adjust the time with the right hand, and it is not necessary to take off the watch deliberately. This design has become an unwritten tradition and has been passed down to this day.
But in fact, there are also a few crowns that are "left-leaning". Are all these watches for left-handers? Of course not! The reason why the crown is set on the left side is mainly because of the diver's wearing habits in the middle of last century.
It's not that divers in the past were all left-handed, but because when they were performing diving tasks, their left wrists were wrapped with various instruments such as compasses or depth gauges, and the watches for calculating diving time were worn on their right hands. Therefore, at that time, a watch brand specially set the crown on the left side to facilitate divers to correct the time. It can be seen that this design did have practical uses in the past.
So most of the left-hand watches you see today (the crown is on the left) are diving watches, which is for historical reasons; The left-hand watch is no longer a diver's patent, especially suitable for left-handed people to wear. Of course, there are some examples where the crown is located on the left because of its unique design, but the styles and quantities are relatively few.
Panerai luminor 1950 Left-handed 3 days acciaio PAM 557 The most famous and prolific left-handed watch is Panerai, because this brand used to supply watches for Italian navy commandos, and their left-handed watch has a nickname [Destro]. Panerai's left-hand watch is quite recognizable, and Luminor's unique crown bridge is changed to the left.
Tudor Pelagos LHD is a replica of a watch designed by Tudor for the French navy in the 1970s. The crown is set at 9 o'clock on the left side of the watch case, which is convenient for divers to adjust the time with their left hand. This is a unique symbol of a left-handed watch.
