By the way, I haven’t got mine wet yet. It is a very nice 120 click bezel and is very mechanically accurate on each click. Nicely done.

I agree. I got myself 1 and 1 for each of my teenagers.

Unfortunately, I'm not wearing mine today, so I can't compare. I rarely use the bezel, so I don't remember how easy it was to move.

Let it dry out, wait a while before getting all worked-up over it and sending it in. It may just resolve itself.
Should've posted back sooner, sorry! It dried out after a couple days and another good rinse. I've given it a couple more baths since, and it dries out. Very tight mechanism.

I love this watch! I put it on a Rubber B in the military green color. It's excellent!

Mine has been on the rivet for a bit and then a fabric single pass neat and now back to the 93150 again.

My AD called and said he had “a treat” for me. I wasn’t on the “list” for the BB58, and I’m fact, assumed that I would have preferred the blue variant, however once I tried on the black BB58 it didn’t take long to swipe the card. It’s been about a month and I love it. Love the size, matte dial, and understated glimmer of gold on the dial. The bracelet and clasp are great quality, though I’m not in love with the rivets. As others have said, once it’s on your wrist, you really don’t notice them at all, so I wouldn’t let that hold you back. Great watch all around at a great price point.

Put a new brown aftermarket strap on mine last week for a bit of a more casual look when I’m not wearing my Explorer:

Rubber B vs. Vanguard, any reason to go with one over the other for rubber?

I’ve got the Blue Vanguard one for my BB58 Navy Blue - looks great and very good quality for the price.

BB58 is one of my favorites. Have both the black and blue at this point.
