Luckily I don't mind and it doesn't bother me at all, but I know it could "kill" the watch for others. This is something that you expect of lower-end Seikos, not from Oris watches. The 120-click unidirectional bezel produces nice clicks and has very good action, however here's a big letdown - on my piece, the bezel doesn't 100% align with the dial. The crown is etched with the Oris logo and it is one of the most comfortable crowns I've handled - winding the watch is buttery-smooth. The bezel is quite thin which does make the dial look larger. The 40mm case sits on the wrist very well with the relatively short lug to lug of 48mm, and it "melts" on the wrist so to speak. The caseback has the old Oris logo engraved and other details about the watch. The case is polished on the sides and brushed on top at the lugs, no fancy beveling here. The glass is AR coated from the inside and it is quite reflective but not enough to disrupt readability. As is appropriate for a vintage-styled watch, the Oris 65 is equipped with a domed sapphire crystal which creates beautiful distortions of the dial from different angles and also when looking at the dial straight, you can see the edge of the round markers "dragging" a little - this doesn't impede the readability and looks really cool IMO.
