DIY pictorial, how to add an insert and pearl to UPO

[edgematic]

In the beginning of October I posted a thread that my pearl and bezel insert fell out. I got a new pearl from pfran and today I finally received my bezel insert from PT (he had to send it twice, first one he got was damaged).

So I tried to make a tutorial for those who lost their bezel and pearl. I know pugwash already made some kind pictorial of this too. Though I'd like to share mine.

I do not have big photographic skills as you will notice on the pics. But I tried. My pics are on photobucket but it seems I cannot show them, so I putted some links. You can see the pictures attached.

Here you go:

Gen insert will fit after modding the bezel. Well, it's not easy to get a pearl.... I got mine from another member. The dealers don't offer them because the pearl is on the bezel, it's not seperate.

Though Precious Time was able to get me one, but he's out of the office until the 9th I guess.
