Chanel J12 Bezel Alignment

[jdub765]

I recently ordered a pair of J12s from Silix, and the bezels are crooked. How do I align them straight? Is the process the same as for other watches (pry w/ razor blade)? I'm a bit weary as I've never done any watch modding as of yet, and the women's J12 has sapphire over the bezel and I'm scared of breaking it.

how is it crooked? you know the bezel is rotatable right?

The 0 at the top isn't square to 12 o'clock. It's either half a click to the right, or half a click to the left.

These watches are the $150 quartz versions from Silix, if that helps at all.

Other than the crooked bezels, the watches seem really nice.

I've been trying to pry at it w/ an old credit card (don't want to scratch the watch w/ a knife, and my fingernails are too short) but it's not budging. I'm not pushing too hard though because I don't want to break anything.

No one's ever taken the bezel off a J12?
