ceejay Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Guy's I am part way through my 1675 build, the parts are rolling in but now I need a little advice. Case is a cartel 1655, 116 crystal from Clark's and a WSO bezel assembly. I have done my CG reshaping 'cornino' style Problem is the bezel assembly is loose over the crystal, only a tiny ammount but certainly doesn't clamp on to the crystal. Is this normal and is it time to go for glue? If it's glue at this point what type (not necessarily brand) are you guy's using? For my first build it's all going nicely so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polexpete Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 I had this problem before and used clear silicon to cement it down which has the added bonus of water proofing it too. You can buy from hardware stores but make sure its the clear variety. You won't need very much so take it easy just make sure there are no gaps between the ring and the case. Its cleans up real easy too Hope it helps Cheers P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceejay Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Thanks Pete, I have some clear silicon in stock so thats cool. While your about, got any tips for installing your DWO? It's going on a DG3804, I am going to remove the ring and sand it down as advised for the clearance. Anything else I need to know about?

denimhead Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 I'd suggest Watchmakers Hypo Cement, it seals very well. If not go with Pete's suggestion and grab the silicon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
