Hi

I got a question. I've lost the pearl of my noob dssd. Now I've get a used inlay with a nice pearl. How do I get the pearl out of the inlay? Any advice? Would be great.

When I removed mine to "platinumize" the insert, I heated the external (metallic part) of the pearl with an electronic welder and carefully pried it out with small pliers.

Be careful, it's REALLY easy to crack the insert. As Gentle says, heating the pearl first is a good way to break the adhesive bond.

Don't bother. Put another bezel with pearl.

The insert of the pearl will probably not be the same size. I tried this and when it didn't fit, I tried to make the hole in the bezel bigger.

In the end, I just changed the lot.

Your TD will get you another bezel with pearl and they're not expensive
