Yep very easy fix mate, even the AD's get these wrong too, they did with mine and as far as the strap goes just about every dealer has them marvin, why not go gen on it?

You see where the insert is sitting in relation to the bezel notches (if thats the correct word for them) they are in the wrong place, they should be lined up numbers with the pointed parts of the bezel, like this
different model but the bezel insert should sit the same way..............hope this helps you marvin thats a lovely piece you have there!
I've got the ZF and I'm very happy with it are you on RwI by any chance ? There is a great comparison thread over there to look through and make your choice gem
If you after a Gen mate I think your right, stick with it and resist the temptation, always works for me..............................
Gen is always Gen
Sepan Ceejay is quite right, Josh is certainly one of our TD's unless of course you happen to have used one of his clone sites that seem to spring up from time to time doesn't seem to be the case here though, have you contacted Mike again since you last spoke to Josh?
Love these, just picked one up myself on the other board in yellow depends entirely on your collection but for me I have plenty black dials in there already so would be white and swiss I fancied a gen bracelet for it but something else caught my eye and that was the Gen black and Yellow leather strap........stunning and ordered today too missus may be slapping me this week!

Good advice guys and goof off is pretty good too, apart from it may well remove the gold plating too he was heating the glue with the bezel off the watch btw so all good, just glad he didn't chop a finger off in the process
