    That's my issue as well.

    It seems that the bezel markers weren't machined in alignment with the notches for the bezel click spring (or vise versa).

    Alternately, if there's a single wire click-spring, it may be a bit too short or long. Shortening it (or replacing it with a slightly longer one) might do the trick.

    or since my dad's "Sokol" doesn't have the problem, get the one from that model?

    Recently got my Orp Dzik and put it on a brushed retro ploprof flatten shark mesh strap. Overall a great piece. Took a few quick snapshots here.












    Can't argue with these two points though. Agree regarding the bezel misalignement and overall loose feel, just seems to cheapen the watch a bit IMO.

    1. In mine, the bezel doesn't line up - as mentioned in some of the above posts. QC guy needs a new set of binnacles
    3. What kind of glue did you guys use for the bottom protective sticker? Holy crap! It was a ..... to remove it.

    I don't mind the ding that much, and it won't be very visible on a watchadoo. But the bezel misalignment is a huuuuuuge annoyance. Hopefully you guys can offer some possible fix, because it looks like i got it at Wallmart

    Looks killer on the mesh.

    My bezel is also slightly off but it doesn't bother me.

    The feel however is excellent on mine. It's tight but not too tight and has a very satisfying click.

    The mesh looks real good too, but I never could get used to it. I'm going to try whatchadoo on it, as I like it on the OM ... I know my dad wanted a bund, as attached, but I don't think it'll work on this type of setup. At least he could use the camo straps from it.

    Wow, those dive watches are hot! They especially look good on mesh. I wish you guys made a Pilot watch.

    Once you get it on, the Watchadoo looks like it was made for the watch. You won't be disappointed.

    Maybe better 6B/159 R.A.F. & P.A.F. issue?
