Help needed - fixing back loose bezel

Recommended Posts

tim2827

This morning I noticed a bigger than usual gap between the bezel and case. I tried to push the bezel back to position but it didn’t move. So I thought it might be misaligned and so I ply open the bezel , and tried to push back to position

But no avail

 

What should I do ?

You need a crystal press. Take the bezel off completely, if the crystal and gasket come off too, then take out crystal and gasket and put them back on the case.

Remove the bracelet.

Put the case on the crystal press and with a press disk made in a shape so that it presses on the bezel but not on the crystal, and (important!) managing to keep the bezel flat (parallel to the crystal and case), push it back in.

Now you have the bezel inserted not parallel to the case and that will not work...

Also remember that you may well lose the water resistance if you don't replace the crystal gasket (not for sure: you'll need to test it after the bezel is back in its place).
