Omega Smp Bezel

[Iztok]

I want to realign the bezel, so it will be correct, like on original. I read the bytor's guide, but i have one problem. My bezel does not align properly when i try to get it like on last picture, the bezel sharp edeges are 0.5-1mm to much to the right. What should i do? Becouse of that i didnt remove bezel yet, couse i am scared that it will get only worse?

When i will remove bezel, can i adjust the spring or something, so that it will lock just at the midlle and not on the right side? I hope you understand what i am trying to tell you... For better understanding i edit pictore, so you can see what is problem...

When i did this, i cut the click spring by a millimetre or so with some wire cutters, until the point was aligned with the 12.

You'll need to totally remove the bezel do do this, if you haven't already.

I had the same issue with mine. I was 2 seconds away from cutting the spring when I decided to try different positions of the bezel. What I mean is, there are 12 sharp edges. So I just tried each one of the 12 until I found one that lined up perfectly with the 12 o'clock marker. Then I just slapped the bezel insert in. May not work for everyones, but it worked for me and is worth a try before you start cutting the spring.
