Would a genuine bezel work? I'm more curious then anything. I'm experiencing the same thing on my 42MM Skyfall CuPO . Looking back at my QC pictures, it was faded prior to shipping.
Well, one things for sure. I checked last night at midnight EST and they weren't available for purchase. Just checked and they're up for grabs
