How do I tighten the cartel 1665 bezel assembly?

[Champagnesky]

Hi folks. I. My 1665 bezel was sitting very loose so I’ve opened it so I could bend the tension ring a little. After figuring out how to remove the bezel from the retaining ring I’ve found out that there wasn’t any tension ring between, so I’ve got one from Phong. Unfortunately the tension ring doesent fit - probably because the cartel bezel is not gen spec. Is there a way to tighten the bezel without creating a custom one or using dental floss ?

A very fine drop of GS hypo cement should work. Did it a few times already.

Make sure the glue is dry before putting the bezel back on the retainer.

Glue needs to be on the retainer, not the bezel itself.

Hope that helps!
