    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!

    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.

    This Seiko KS is a great watch I can say, the only con is the bezel action is tight. IMO.

    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.
