Hi guys,

i just receive my case from my watchsmith and he forgot the bezel on. How can i remove it?
I was try with some small knifes against its' base but i don't see any results.
I was use 20-30 Nm i suppose..

I wonder that for other non rotating Panerai bezels.


Can they be "easily" removed?

Finally, yes.

I was try a lot of tools with caution but i couldn't manage to remove the bezel.
A friend of mine has with him a watch oriented swiss pocket knife that has "caseback" opener
a spoon-knife smaller than a thumb.

With this tool, it was a 2 min job. You just press enough in the base and move to another spot of the base when you feel it in the bases' gap.
