HELP!

[Frazzle1]

Ive just dropped my 6538 and cracked the Plexi and smashed the acrylic Pearl.

I've not long had it back from Rolie who put the plexi in for me. He's thankfully agreed to take a look at I again, and thankfully this isn't an expensive plexi...don't know what I'd do without him

That said I'm going to need to find a replacement bezel pearl and/or bezel insert.

Do any of you guys have anything in your parts bins to help me out?

The Pearl, Dial and Hands were all relumed by Big Dazza so I've sent him a PM to see if he has anything, but I'd thought I'd throw it out there.

Could cry right now!

If I were you (just a thought) I'd get a new plexi and leave the bezel as it is. Three 6538 gens I have seen in person  bezels have the pearls missing.

I agree don't worry about the pearl, crystal now thats another story

Thanks for the advice guys. The watch is now back with Rolie who has in hand a new lumed pearl from Big Dazza and a Generic Tropic No. 21 plexi fresh in from cousins for sanding and fitting.

Can thank Neil enough for his willingness to help again.

Last minute decision....I have ordered a new bezel insert from Yuki. It's not going to look as battered as it once was but at least the insert won't be bent.
