How do you remove this #!$&? type of bezel ?

[docdoc]

I am killing myself at trying to remove this bezel ?

I tried every sharp tool around but had no luck

if it will come off, and there is no guarantee it will, for example it is almost impossible to remove the bezel from the Noob, the method suggested to me was using single edged razor blades, push in 4 at 90 degrees apart. then stack another on top of each forced in to widen the gap between bezel and case, then another, and so on until the bezel pops off. this way you are applying small amounts of force all the way round fairly evenly so less likely to damage the bezel. I've used this method with success on Seadweller and Datejusts but failed miserably on a Noob Sub.

Is that the DSSD case? If so good luck. I tried everything I know short of a cold chisel and hammer and couldn't budge it. I asked BK and he said he hasn't been able to get it apart either.

It is a GMT case. Is it normal that it does not click ?

I have the GMT II (ceramic bezel) and it does not "click". It's smoothly bi-directional and it does not click the way that a Submariner might click.

Is the gen does not click also ?

Would you be kind enought to let me know what is the size of the crystal ?

Hi friends,

the diameter of the inside ring (where the glass is supposed to be) is 30.2 mm. This is the measurement without any gasket in it. Just the plain steel ring. But maybe you might want to open another thread to get your answer (and mine)
