  1. Rubber Cement-- Good Idea, and if it gets on the outside of the bezel, it jut rubs right off and should not leave a mark.

    Still-- does anyone have advice or experience R&Ring the entire Bezel? Ziggy?

    Popping them in and out will probably expand the holes a bit and compress the 'plugs' a bit, possibly making the problem worse or 100% reliant on good adhesive.

  2. I think this also applies to all the recent AeroMarine (Skyland, Fish, etc) series reps.

    I was planning on doing something similar, and although these bezels are a PITA to R&R, I still think the best course is to pop the bezel off and access them from back side.

    If I get around to doing it, I would try and peen them on the inside, and perhaps a dab of epoxy/JB weld. Loctite has been recommended before, but most Loctite formulas only cure in the absence of air ~ala threads.

    Your solution, however, is my backup plan, and a good one. :thumbs:

  3. Star Wars (1977)

    Kill Bill

    Lost in Translation

    (I have way too many fav's to pick three, but those came to mind first...Honorable mention: Fifth Element, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs.)

    Hmmm, top three per genre might be more fun.

  4. Interesting comments. I guess I am the Kobold defender then. He and his watches are gaining immense popularity, and getting write ups. The 2009 WT Buyers Guide has at least half a dozen.

    I am a fan of the very clean, minimalistic, yet functional designs of his. Who knows, this may actually be the time to buy a gen Kobold if his success propels him and his company higher.

  5. Yes, but he makes some nice, high quality watches. I am not defending his past, but he is a 'young' guy. 24 at the time. Hopefully he learned his lesson and will keep his head on straight. Stick to watches instead of impersonating law enforcement.

    Hmmmm, not like anyone here has done anything wrong in the eyes of the law or fibbed to customs agents. Sounds like he would fit in here. LOL. ;)
