tframo Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hey guys. Has anyone else had issues with the bezel being very tight/stiff almost impossible to rotate? Any ideas how to fix? Thanks Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSTEEL Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Did you receive the watch like that direct from TC, or did you buy the TC watch second hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abat Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Mine came a little tight but certainly not impossible to rotate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tframo Posted August 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Did you receive the watch like that direct from TC, or did you buy the TC watch second hand? Bought second hand then sent to vac to install gen crown and crystal. I have an email into vac to see what the issue is but no reply as if yet... Any ideas what it could be?

dbane883 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 I think the washer and/or click spring might have got pinched somehow. Bezel needs to be removed and reinstalled ensuring friction washer and spring is correctly positioned is my suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptTripps Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Mine was like that after I put my bezel on. Turned out the click spring was kinked. Easy fix. Update: Try twisting it in the direction it naturally turns as you click it into place. Kinda like you're opening a bottle in reverse. That may help to seat it properly.

Nightwatch Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 supposing it´s just stiff: flush it under the faucet while turning the bezel several times. Put some gloves on and just turn it until it runs smooth. Actually saw a sales post for a TC once (at higher price): free citation "mods: turned the bezel around 400x for You so it runs smooth......"
