mingray Posted June 28, 2009 Report Posted June 28, 2009 Guys, Just gauging interest in Bezels for 42 and 45mm PO....im just seeing if it is worth ordering a few... Black and possibly orange available Price TBC Mingray
kramerica2 Posted June 28, 2009 Report Posted June 28, 2009 If those inserts fit the Narikaa POs, and have closer to gen pearl, I believe that there will be a demand for them. I know I'll order it.

I know I'll order it. They will fit Narikaa PO's....just waiting for some detailed pics of them before i order. I dont know prices yet,i dont even know a fair price to pay!!...its that early in the pipeline...
mingray Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Posted June 28, 2009 Ok had a reply and Bezels will come in @
Rolexman Posted June 28, 2009 Report Posted June 28, 2009 I'm really curious if they'll fit the POrikaa. What are the dimensions of the insert? You have to know them, right...
mingray Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Posted June 28, 2009 These are standard fit for both 45/42 mm bezels...why wouldnt they fit??.... I have asked for detailed info to confirm sizes...
Rolexman Posted June 28, 2009 Report Posted June 28, 2009 Because there is lot of difference between inserts, even if they are made for the same model. The ones you can buy are probably made for the real deal. Most of rep PO's (42 and 45) don't have the exact same size as the genuine... thus knowing the exact inner and outer diameter before buying is recommended. I can give you the measurements of the POrikaa if like?
argus Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 I'd also be interested in a black one if it fits the POrikaa. Look forward to seeing the pics.
numptyj Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 interesting... is it easy to take off a bezel and attach and new one, do you just have to try and pry it out with a screwdriver or is there a more professional method lol.
kramerica2 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 interesting... is it easy to take off a bezel and attach and new one, do you just have to try and pry it out with a screwdriver or is there a more professional method lol. I only did it once, and it wasn't easy at all. I've tried all the professional methods and non worked. Finally I did it the easiest way, i took a small screwdriver, used it to pop out the pearl, then inserted the screwdriver into the pearl hole and with a fair amount of force pulled out the bezel insert. Of course the insert is ruined after that, but the purpose is to get it replaced, so who cares?
charmquark Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 They will fit Narikaa PO's....just waiting for some detailed pics of them before i order. Put me on the interest list for an Orange one, please.

mingray Posted July 4, 2009 Author Report Posted July 4, 2009 Guys, Really sorry about those pics i completely forgot!!! ...well i bit the bullet and ordered some anyway!..just a few for now to see how good they are...so instead of pics you get the real thing!! Only got 4 for now, but what i propose to do is send one each, to the first 3 members that have shown genuine interest,all i ask is they pay for postage..then if you post up what you think of them,and they seem a good deal, i will get some more.Im in no position to sy if they are good or not,so i think this idea may work.. 2x 45mm black bezel 2x 42mm orange bezel are the ones ive ordered...remember 3 available....i want one! So if you have shown interest and i still have the size you want,please reply and as soon as they turn up,i will post them on.Hope Admin are of with this?...... Ming
kramerica2 Posted July 4, 2009 Report Posted July 4, 2009 Hey, Thanks for the kind offer. I'd love to get one of the 42mm inserts. Just let me know how do you want to get the money.
argus Posted July 4, 2009 Report Posted July 4, 2009 I was really after a black 42mm so I'll leave the orange for someone else. Interested to hear what they are like.
