Was there an alternative adjective to “clockwise” other than “the rotation you take around left hand”?

Also, how did all watch companies around the world agree on what the direction of “clockwise” is?

    same way as a bread is sliced

    Haha interesting, but how do you slice bread by rotation? it’s up to down. That’s how you cut stuff.

      1. Grip the bread vertically to your chest.
      2. Start cutting in direction from the front to the back.
      3. Slowly rotate the bread, so you cut the crust only in one point (the tip of the knive moves through already cut bread).

      It may be easier to see it with a short knive.
