Peter52 Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Hey guys, i just got my skyland case replaced(cause the crown/tube) was broken, but the new bezel doesn't fit as tight as the old does. Is it possible to swap the bezel from the old case to the new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronoluvvv Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 I've seen bezel swaps done on the Super Avenger but not on the Skyland You might want to loop some dental floss tightly under the bezel so that there might be some resistance against the inner ratcheting ring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter52 Posted May 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Well, dental floss would be an idea, but i'm not shure if i can fit the floss under the bezel. Swapping the bezel would be the best option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importr Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 If you can safely remove the bezel, you could re-bend the 15 edged spring clip, so that the bezel is tighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky driver Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 i think i would go with the floss option....apparently they are very stubborn bezel to get off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreww Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 I used dental floss on my Skyland and its been holding tight for two years now. The secret is to cut a long piece. Once you get it started, pull it tight, the wrap it around until the ends overlap. Then clip the ends close to the case. Then take another piece of floss and use it to work the loose ends in to the case as well. After doing this mine became very stiff and was hard to turn, but after forcing it around a few times it loosened up and now sits firmly on the case but no longer rattles or turns freely.
