[Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Chrono] inner bezel rotation action shot (imgur.com)

Here’s a quick video of the inner rotating bezel on this watch.

To engage, the upper pusher ring is pressed in and rotated bi-directionally. Turning the pusher ring without pressing in doesn’t engage the bezel.

Pretty cool to see. Does it click when you move the bezel or is it smooth? I feel like the click doesn’t make much sense, but my OCD would get the best of me if I didn’t have the help of the clicks.

There’s no click

And if you’re OCD, this is better. You can align the bezel perfectly, without worrying if the bezel ratchet was misaligned during assembly.

None of my clicking bezels line up perfectly. This is the only one that does.

Didn’t think about that. It would also be like when I’m adjusting the time and spend a minute or two trying to get the hand exactly centered on the marker. Lol. Either way, super cool to see in action. I have been wanting to check the inner bezel in person and feel how it turns. Great looking watch too!
