Destro finally arrived!

Got the call this am, I know it’s a polorizing watch. As a Lefty I couldn’t be happier. I’ve always loved the quirky watches, this one and the milaguass being examples of Such. It wears very well, and to me looks very natural on the right hand.

Congrats!

I originally did not like it from the pictures I saw of it in boxes and on left arms, where I thought it just looked upside-down. However, on a right arm, it looks solid and handsome.

It’s my first GMT. I’m surprised by how slim and small they feel on the wrist.

Nice watch. By the way what is the origin of the name ‘Destro’??

Love it. It looks great on you too. I have been looking for an incoming on this model for a while. In fact I was thinking about it as I opened the forum this morning. It’s great to see it going to a member and not a grey market dealer. Especially one who’s going to wear it. Congrats and enjoy.

The only “lefty” watch I have is a Panerai 368. I’m right handed, so I wear it on my left wrist. I can’t comfortably wear a watch in the right wrist.

The special charm of the new GMT Master is that it looks at home on the right wrist, not as much so on the left.

I think the Destro GMT Master is a must have for any left-handed watch collector. Congrats and enjoy a watch that was made just for you!

Love it! Also, thank you for not referring to it with a lame sodapop nickname.
