The "rotating" timing bezel on this watch is NOT very easy to turn !
I just received this watch as a retirement gift which was purchased from Amazon.
I love the looks of it, and the automatic/self wind (no battery) feature... but what I like most in my watches is a rotating bezel for timing various things... I'm not a scuba diver, but I do time many things, especially when cooking, walking, or anything that needs to be timed within an hour or less.
I can barely get it to turn using two hands with the watch off of my wrist.
The write-up on Amazon says that it has a "... with a blue unidirectional rotating bezel with silver markings and coin-edged, scalloped highlights". "Coin-edged" would definitely help, but this watch does not have any coin-edged grooved slots around its circumference.
Does anyone else have an issue with the ease of turning the timing bezel ?
I plan on returning it, and getting the Invicta 89260B or the 89280B which are pictured with a true "coin-edged" bezel.
