+@zillsburyy1 It's attractive. Thanks for watching so soon after the release 😁
I have the SRPE33 Manta Ray version. The bezel action is easy on mine. Also, the waffle dial is only on the black and white dial versions. Nice review!

+@riflemusket Great watch with the SRPE33. I should review one of those too. Thanks for the kind words too.
I have 2 Sammies. Love them both. But I will say the 2024 Sammie is going to be epic. Seiko shrank the sammie case by a few millimeters and streched out the lug to lug. 😂👍🏻

Jeff, I just watched this (3/27/24) and grabbed my white dial K-Samurai during your review to check my bezel action. Mine is really good 8 out of 10? Thats good considering my new Tudor Pelagos FXD is a 9. Perhaps yours is a QC issue. Also the LumaBITE on mine is fantastic 😉😆. Great review and as usual, I learned things about my watch I didnt know.

Kick ass watch. Too bad about the bezel action. I missed the price if you mentioned it.

+@nedflanders3769 It is cool with those Manta Rays
This Seiko KS is a great watch I can say, the only con is the bezel action is tight. IMO.

Use two fingers. It works fine when water gets on it, so works perfect in diving
Most under rated watch in 2024

The bezel action on mine is fine, it must be an issue with yours.

The SRPE33J8 is made in Japan.

If the dial says "Made in Japan" it was actually made in Japan. If it says "Japan Movt" it was made elsewhere. I am not sure about any of the King Seikos manufacturers locations, but my SRPF03 was definitely made in Japan. Additionally the box will have the full stock number which includes a "J" or a "K" for instance SRPF03J1 or SRPF03K1
Looks like the bezel is rubbing on the strap. Maybe that's why.
