Most sensible suggestion I heard was from John Coughtrie.

His theory was that it was for the mechanics in the fitting shop, if
the customer/owner was a pleasant young lady, to spin on the coffee
table.  When it stops, the one that the arrow is pointing to makes
an approach to the lady.

A bit like the bottle in "Postman's Knock", for any of my countrymen
present.
