If you do a Google image search for the term Vintage Grand Seiko advert you can find several with straps arranged the normal way like that one I posted earlier. In fact I've never seen a picture of a reverse strap arrangement, like you describe, in old print ads or vintage GS catalogs.

PS: If it's a deployant clasp, though, then it's normal for it to be the way you describe yours, and many Swiss watch brands have that setup, with the buckle on the six side.
