I have done this for all 5 band slots, on both modes, I have worked
VP6DX on so far including 20 CW just now. Likewise I am used SO2V on the
sub rx in my FT1kMP, (presumably that's what you mean by Dual Watch?) .
The main problem is not the K3 but is the stations in the pile-up. It is
ever so simple. If he sends your callsign you transmit, if he doesn't
send your callsign you don't transmit! What bit of that don't they
understand?!

From reading the manual, to operate split that "B" is the Xmit and
you can listen on "B" by using the REV button and holding it to
listen.
Is that correct? And, for those people who use a K3, how did that
work for you? Is it a clean operation?
Yes, that's how it works. You can use one hand to hold the REV button
and turn the knob, with a little practice.
It works as well as any radio with a single receiver can. You can
switch back and forth rapidly, but you can't listen to both VFOs at
the same time
