On some of these reps...for instance the Noob, the bezel is just not easy to remove without damaging it beyond reuse. Some here have taken them off and put them back. I went on some advice on this forum that made sense to me. Instead of removing the bezel and screwing things up...if all I wanted to do is replace the bezel insert is to do a destructive removal of the insert. You can take the point of utility knife and, very carefully, insert between the bezel and the insert and pop that puppy out. I can actually reuse the original insert. It just messed it up where I inserted the knife. I was able to mod the new 16610 insert and pop it in...no glue.

Also, I have BK's crown set. It is the larger case tube but it screws into the same hole on the Noob. It is buttery smooth too, just like gen.

Thank you very much. So you think I should remove the bezel insert with a knife and then place the new one. Is there any sort of "tutorial" to do that??

Thanks for your precious answers.

My watch was bought from Josh, the model is a RLSS01008 but I don't know of which genuine Rolex is the replica.

I just hope that, if I buy a new bezel-insert, it will fit my bezel now!

About changing the whole bezel with a new one or one that is genuine... do you think I can make it or should I call a watchsmith?

Hello everyone.

I have bought with my satisfaction a replica of a Rolex Submariner with black bezel.

Please note I'm a newbie and all I do is read this forum and try to find info without making unuseful posts.

So far, I did all by myself without asking the usual questions of a beginner.

Now my problem is:

I have a co-worker with an original Rolex Submariner with black bezel.

We compared the two watches and we realized how close the replica is to genuine. Almost impossible to notice first look.

But what really hit us, was the bezel.

Gosh, the bezel looks fake. The numbers are bigger than the genuine!

Do you know where I can find a new bezel? A black bezel for a Rolex Submariner that fits my replica?

And that is better made than this one on my Joshua Submariner?

Do you know of any other mods I can make on this watch?

Please let me know and forgive a poor newbie asking always the same old things... so new to me!!!

thanks!
