ReplicaFromDownunder 2 Posted June 7, 2012 Hi all, Pearl has fallen off my submariner 16610, 2836-2 movement. Lasttime I had this issue on a 21j movement watch I got a replacement bezel on eBay buy stuffed the watch by removing bezel. Don't ask how!! I suck a bezel replacement. I am after a simple solution? Thinking buy replacement bezel on eBay $15.00 then try and remove that pearl and epiloc(glue) it in existing bezel.

Couldnt get it back together and broke something in it. Can I remove the pearl from the new bezel insert easy or is it hard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know about replacing just the pearl, but I'm sure some modders can help you with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But light marks at 7 on the silver housing part next to bezel :( Going to order replacement bezel on eBay... What do you lads think bout this bezel?? Would of got a 21j submariner and kept it for spares from Timeshops but meh.. http://www.ebay.com....Y-/160695474217 sent via my HTC Desire HD using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
