Agree it's not an example for good quality checks.
But unfortunately it happens to all the collectors.
I think the solutions given by Eurotimez is correct.
I remember worse or no solutions from other collectors.

This is my MBW SUB modded by Omega
It's one of the old school MBW with a gen insert crown tube springbars bracelet springbar etc.
I don't have any problems with the bezel , it feels and clicks like the gen construction.
A picture of the excelent crown guard job
And a picture inspired by the legendairy MBW supplier TTK

I would remove the bezel first and then glue the insert backinto the bezel.
When it's dry you can assemble the bezel to the watch again.
A friend of mine didn't disassemble the bezel and used to much glue.
End result is that the insert stays in and the bezel doesn't turn anymore because it's glued to the watch.

I almost bought a DSLR from such a website.
Google saved my money with all the bad posts.
If it's to good to be true stay away from it.

Hi Scooterby that's nice info.
At least you got a MBW with a gen ETA , mine had a cheap copy even with a case clamp missing when it got delivered.
Still haven't had time to make some pictures of the engraving between the lugs.
But i will make time for it this weekend.

I've got no bad experience with Neil.
Can't call it super , after waiting for 6 months for the goods to arrive , but still i got what i paid for .
Had some nice skype calls with him and i remember that he had some serious health issues that time.
Hope he is in good health.

I'm searching quit a long time now for a nice 1675 now.
I would like to have advice on which roadmap i have to follow to built/buy a great 1675.
Should i buy a 1675 case from Yuki and start the search for a good dial hand and movement etc.
Or is there a good 1675 for sale from on of the collectors which needs modding.
Total amount of money i want to invest is around 800 euro's.
Thanks in advance.
Please help me with my descission.
