speedbird100 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 This arrived today and I've already replaced the bezel insert. What do you think? Regards, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woof* Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Looks great, what is the bezel like? Does it come off, or is it paperclip type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedbird100 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Dates look fine, open 6s etc etc. the bezel is held on by double sided tape. The new bezel pressed in nicely once I shaved it a tiny bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply...I was asking about the bezel, not the bezel insert. I take it you didn't remove the bezel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedbird100 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Yeah I removed it. It uses a plastic gasket and is held in place by friction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sneed12 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I have a spare jubilee, but I wonder if it won't have the same problem you're having now. What clasp are you trying to install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedbird100 Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 I'm thinking about shaving down the bezel diameter a bit. Are the results usually passable? Or should I just go with the WSO ring? Seems like it will produce the general look I'm after. Ugh I didn't want to mod but I think I have to a little bit.
