The insert is glued (or taped) into the bezel. When you remove the bezel you can push the insert off from backwards. Then just reglue it into new correct position. In theory you don't have to remove the whole bezel in order to align the insert again, but it's virtually impossible to force any sharp object between the insert and bezel hole - and then pull the insert off without seriously damaging and scratching it.
I know this may sound stupid, but why does one have to realign the spring? Doesn't the bezel just rotate around that spring after it's reinstalled? I've tried a bunch of different placements, but it seems to me that all one has to do is remove the bezel, remove and re-glue the dial into the correct position, put the spring anywhere, then reinstall the bezel back onto the watch.
