Trim the inside of CGs:

If the insert isn't recessed, make it so. Not all noobs come like that. Sometimes the factory didn't apply pressure on the insert enough while the glue cured, the insert can be "floating".

This mod can be easy or hard depending if the insert comes off easily or not. If it comes very tight from the factory, you have to pop it by first popping the crystal. If you don't have a crystal press, this job will be next to impossible without damaging the insert.

When the insert is well inside the bezel bay, recessed, the whole watch looks much better, really get that gen sub feel. It applies to any other sub reps. Get the insert recessed, show the bezel lip, my friends.

Oh, by the way, I put a watchmaterial pearl in this one.
