I think you are thinking of a count-up bezel, standard on most dive watches. They measure elapsed time
a countdown bezel measures time remaining. The 15 is in the 9 o'clock position instead of at 3. You turn the time to the minute hand, and when it reaches 0, times up. Regular bezel count up, not down, but they are not nearly as useful
