The exact opposite. The destro arrangement is so that the crown
doesn't dig into your wrist.
Yep. The only watch that digs into my wrist is my EZM1-
I wear it on my right wrist.
... left handed?

Awesome!
Even though there's no chamferization!
That crown! I'm jealous!
And I am estimating you'll wear that camo ketchup 53% of the time that you decide to WRUW 41%.

It is actually 100% chamfer!
Big Crown is cool.
I'm 81% sure.

I haven't. I'll probably put the Kobold on Isofrane and leave the Sinn for NATO's.

Thanks Joe. I was close to pulling the trigger on another 857 when this popped up. FYI -there is a decent deal on a TESTAF 857 on recon.

Damn... I should come out from under my rock more often... That is a nice looking Sinn. Looks great on the NATO.
