So now OCD is an insult? lol at you "cool" Rolex fans. I bet if Rolex started to make all the crowns the same as the Skydweller, you "doesn't care" folk would change your tune. Like when Rolex made the cases bigger, added the ceramic bezel, changed the bracelet, went to SELs, etc.
The better option and more cost effect would be to remove the emblem off the crown altogether, then everyone's would line somewhere, that's if they supposed to line up with anything.Myself could not give a hoot where the crown emblem is upright or downside up it's a winding crown for winding a watch nothing more.And not something that's must be looked at and checked 24/7 whether its upright or not.Some say that the ceramic inserts and bracelets were functional improvements, cannot see any functional improvement in a upright or downside up winding crown, as no matter where the emblem is, its only function is to wind and adjust the watch.
