irolexu Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I have a sub that I just got a flat 4 insert for and when I go to snap it in the bezel it goes in very nice except for when I rotate the bezel the insert seems to be to loose! it just goes where ever it wants to and I can move it around with my fingers...I was thinking of maybe flattening it out but I do not know how to do that and I also do not want to damage my insert or the bezel...experts let me know what I should do!

danza1812 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Is your sub a bk? If so the retaining ring will need altering/filing to fit I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 the insert is to small not the bezel it supposed to snap it. it floats around inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Does anyone know if it's possible to flatten the insert to make it snap in more fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Scope Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 If it looks like a pretty good fit I would just add a few pin head size drops of hypo cement.Just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeto72 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 either cement it with hypo cement......or get a bigger insert.....is it a clarks insert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 No it's a gen but a flat 4 not a pointed 4 which is correct for that year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 either cement it with hypo cement......or get a bigger insert.....is it a clarks insert? I would but I just hate having to glue anything to a watch! Just not my style...is it possible to flatten the insert do that it is a little wider?

Original Scope Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I would try to keep it's original shape.If glued it can still be removed pretty easy if needed by removing the bezel.Sometimes you even have to do this with gens.
