gioarmani Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Someone recently posted a link to a webiste selling Sub bezel inserts (with good pearls) that I can't seem to find now. I believe it was "watch(something).com"--watchpiece.com or watchpart.com? Anyone know? Thanks.
freddy333 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 I used the insert on the left, but replaced the pearl (Illumines Dot) with one from ofrei ($10). It was a perfect snap-in fit for the MBW case (The bending second hand is due to a slow exposure)

Gigatron Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 yup, watchmaterial.com. I ordered the replacement bezel insert to get the better pearl. I'll hopefully have it soon so I can figure out exactly what it is I'm replacing (the pearl or the pearl and it's bezel (little silver ring around the pearl)). You want part number 315-16800-1. -Fred
gioarmani Posted July 31, 2007 Author Report Posted July 31, 2007 Already ordered. And don't replace just the pearl--swap out the entire insert.

The vintage dots are nearly impossible to find. I picked up some from a guy in HK who sells them on ebay, but paid around $15 bucks a piece plus shipping.
