dylan Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I've been debating this with a forum friend. I claim the bezel screws should be slightly recessed/sunken. He claims every gen he's had in his hand, the bezel screws are flush with the bezel? who's correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted October 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I think the screw heads are slightly different between the rep and gen... The rep screw heads are flat, while the gen screw heads have a very slight curvature. So maybe you're both correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the gen is slightly recessed with the curvature being flush with the bezel. Hmmm...I need to take a different approach to QC pics then. I've been religiously choosing ones with bezel screws slightly sunken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm...I need to take a different approach to QC pics then. I've been religiously choosing ones with bezel screws slightly sunken I'm not sure slightly sunken vs not is a QC issue. If there is a rubber o-ring under the screw head, then the amount of sunken-ness (to coin a new term) probably depends on how much they're tightened down. I.e. if you loosen slightly, they might go from recessed to flush. Also, a nice anal retentive mod might be to slightly round over the screw heads and re-polish. For me, I don't care.
