Seriously, the WD-40 thing is appalling! Actually, water is the best lubricant to use on the bezel, and since the watch was designed for underwater diving, the bezel works fine under the conditions it was designed for. I use mine to monitor the time that patients have been on breathing treatments. My hands have to be washed between each patient, and after the first patient on a set of rounds I allow the watch to get wet. It only takes 2-3 seconds of "rinsing" and the bezel rotates just fine. I am especially careful, however, of not allowing soap to get on the watch during hand washings. Soap lowers the surface tension and could allow water to enter the watch.
