Wearing this today as usual. We're going swimming with a friend of ours and her daughter, so it should be a fun day.

Just at the mall now waiting on lunch to be ready.

Went for a little walk past a Seiko AD and they had some nice watches in the display.






I think the key to mitigating issues with the Samurai / King Samurai bezel rotation is it must be held at 12 and 6 to adequately grip / rotate. The end links seemingly slope down enough to facilitate this, unlike most other watches where this isn't an issue. I'll try it at the pool today and report back.

I've also got the Casio Calculator watch from back to the future in transit!

So it was a bit easier to rotate the bezel this way, however, at first it was still challenging to do a full rotation (almost) which would line the minute hand up with the bezel.

After a while in the pool it was easier. This is likely due to other variables, but I still really like this watch. A true shame the bezel rotation isn't better, even with optimal grip and when submerged under water.

We just finished season 3 - entertaining but not exceptional.
