Does anybody pay attention to the crown position? A long time ago, I was told that people would hang a horseshoe upside down over their door so that it would catch good luck. At least that is what I was told. So I always oriented the Omega upside down for the same reason. Seemed to work on a car crash that should have killed me, but I was wearing my Omega Officers Model with the crown in the open up position. The watch almost got as much damage as I did, but we both made it.
Just thinking as tonight I put on my Speedy Pro, and yes, oriented the Omega open end up.
