Push pull crowns vs bending?

this Question is in regards to push pull crowns. I just got a watch with a diamond style crown. it’s very large and I’m nervous to wear it too low on the wrist. worried that I might bend the crown if I bend my wrist too far upward. Is this a legit concern, or am I just being overly cautious?

Good to know, so then I’ll continue to wear it a bit above the knuckle. probably safer. it just sadly does not sit as comfortably for me this way. but thats how it is sometimes. thanks for the reply!

I dropped my speedy once and it fell exactly on the crown so that it bended. That is definitly the disadvantage of push pull crowns. So you have to be more carefull with them.

Never had this problem and don’t see how it could happen as long as the crown is in position 0. Especially with a screw down crown.
