The bullhead layout is the most natural . . .
. . . for a right-handed person to actuate. That's one of the main reasons I'm so drawn to them. The design is, in my opinion, driven by the movement lay-out, and not the other way around.
The DeVille chronos with date at 9 utilizing the same cal 930 movement were laid out equally naturally for left-handed wearers.
Back in the good ol' days, before everyone realized how intrinsically valuable these scarce chronos were, they could be found often and at little expense. No longer . . . they rarely come up in any condition, much less good.
Best,

The owner have a similar wrist size as you, and wears it perfectly! That said, not only wrist size plays a role here but shape as well... Best Blomman
Definitely funky, a conversation piece. Can be a tool to pick up girls.
Just be careful of the quality of the girls you pick up. Have fun my friend. Enjoy. Geross 😉
Omega have a lot of great Sports watches from that era!
Chronostop Jumbo, Soccer Chrono, Memomatic - just to mention a few... Best Blomman
Hi Blomman
You have the greatest taste in watches, so the owner of this one is definitely flattered by your kind words ! Thanks for the nice pictures and, most of all, for the meeting: I learnt and discovered so much. All the best Karmin
