How did I spot the elevator trim was working in the wrong sense?

Standing outside the aircraft facing backwards - right hand on the trimmer, left hand on the stick. The bottom wire had been connected to the top and vicky vercky, the trimmer did not feel as smooth as normal - but I doubt that if I hadn't not noticed the wrong movement I would not have discovered it until I retrimmed in flight - normally early on the climb out!
