The difference is that the crown on normal watches isn't really used as
a method of controlling anything (it's usually only there to wind the
watch and/or more rarely adjust the time). 

The crown on the Apple Watch is there as a controller, meaning it will
need to be used far more often (which would mean blocking the screen if
used pointing up the arm), but luckily Apple had already thought of
that and the Apple Watch can be turned "upside-down".
