Frazzle 5 Posted February 1, 2014 I just tried this on a newly received Black Bay and it worked a treat. Thanks. Just what I was looking for. Thanks That's the one I sold you about,I prefer the foil tbh The foil looks trickier but I'm look for the best fix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zinnboy 0 Posted May 17, 2014 Did the floss and screwed my watch. Had to do this to fix it. http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=78412 Not too bad though as it works now and I'll use less floss. Anyone who has a NSD bezel pearl shoot me a PM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qwerty1000 79 Posted May 11, 2018 I just fixed a loose bezel on my PO. I suspect it was slightly buckled from prizing it off. The dental floss method worked fantastic. It now feels bloody amazing. This is a great trick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used it for not rotating bezel to clean it up without removing the bezel so it rotates again;) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mingthem 0 Posted May 15 This thread (pun intended) still giving! Just sorted a very Seamaster 300 "Spectre" bidirectional bezel that was irritatingly loose in that it would easily shift with say a hand in a jeans pocket. No more! Highly endorse using the second piece of floss for the final tuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
