- the accuracy of the movement is disappointing but then again I wasn’t expecting COSC. Still, kind of a bummer for this price point.

With that said, completely agree with the one watch statement. It’s not only an amazing watch but one I feel has more “soul” vs any other watch I’ve owned. Sure it’s all in my head but that feeling of wearing something so special and historic is one of the reasons I love it.

I had the exact same problem as you with getting the watch over my hand. In the event you haven't tried it yet, try putting the watch on with your palm facing up and thumb tucked in, as if you were going to have the watch on the other side of your wrist. Once the watch has cleared your wrist, simply spin it around.

If you've tried this already, then please excuse me.
