tonyp1 Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) How many of you ran into this? The bezel wont seat flush with the watch. Am I missing something in this process? Edited May 30, 2007 by tonyp1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 For the steel 6265 bezels, those can be pressed on with a press. For the acrylic 6263 bezels, those have to be trimmed slightly to fit. I've done a number of these... Here's an old EE I did over a year ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eunomians Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Careful with the acrylic bezel, t can crack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Understood Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 That's normal. The T21 crystal is a really tight fit inside the bezel. Just find a high quality rounded file and work the inside surface of the bezel until it presses on without too much effort. But remember it's the only thing holding that crystal on, so keep it a tight fit. You can also lightly lube around the base of the crystal so the bezel slides down easier. Oh, my goodness. I feel mildly weak in my knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
