Most of my dive watch bezels have 60 clicks per revolution. My Seiko White Knight and Rolex Sub have 120 clicks per revolution hand6.gif So, it begs me to ask: Are there watches out there that dare more clicks? I guess we need to exclude the ones that have 'smooth friction' bezels that theoretically have unlimited clicks. cat28.gif Thanks! Marc

The clicks are based on the 60 minutes around the dial, aren't they? So one click per minute = 60 wth two clicks per minute = 120. something tells me chopping the minutes up any smaller would be madness...

as Pax and T agree...there are 1min. graduations or 60 clicks or 1/2 min. graduations or 120 clicks...most divers prefer the latter of 120 clickshand6.gif

Yea the most I am aware of is the 120 (half minute) click. The next obvious if they were to do it or if there is a custom bezel out there some place would probably be a 240 (quarter minute) click.
