I had my Submariner 116610 LN ARF a few weeks now(my 1st rep) it's been amazing but somehow I've knocked off my 12oclock pearl on the bezel.
I contacted Ryan at intime and he's says the factory can only do the entire bezel at $60 with shipping. Is there anywhere else I can get just the pearl for cheaper? What's the easiest way to replace it, just glue another on?

You could always DIY one. In bonesy' aging guide in the tutorial board (it's stickied) he made his own one (although it was intentionally meant to look vintage). You could try something similar with a different mix to him to make it more white.


It'd most likely be cheaper and faster, regardless, worth a shot and if it goes wrong you can grab a new insert

Totally different watch model, totally different pearl.

OP, look on eBay.
