I can't believe that this thread has made me start counting the number of clicks for a full bezel rotation.
Omega Seamaster - 60 clicks - check
New gen 120. Clicks.

Rolex Sea Dweller 4000 - 120 clicks

Omega Seamaster - 60 clicks.

I would say the Omega has the better action, on the Rolex bezel it is possible to move it back fractionally, but the Omega is rock solid.

+1. Damasko arguably has the most satisfying bezel action of any watch thumbup Sometimes Konrad Damasko's aerospace engineering background shines through.

I used to do that. Time the start of CPR, so you know when to stop.

Talking about Bezel clicks...my Sub is a wee bit tight on the clicks. Gmt is smoother and less clicky lol.

Make sure the crown is screwed down, then wash it (water only) and turn the bezel a few times whilst underwater.

As a teenager it was used for counting beers. Move on 5 minutes for every beer on a night out. Wake up in the morning and look at watch. "Oh, that explains the head".

Lunch at work, what else? biggrin Sometimes I go early, sometimes I go late, so always use the bezel to time it. Nobody clock watches but I like being punctual for things.

I also use it to time my tea. 4 minutes infusion time = perfect brew.

Other times I just rotate it just for fun because the ratchet feel and noise is so satisfying on the Pelagos.
