Of all the flaws in the Speedmaster replicas, the bezel/insert is one of he worst. They’re printed (or something) instead of etched, and you can’t see them. They fade/wear and go to just black.
But it being new to this hobby (I have 3 reps), I don’t know much about the bezels on these Chinese reps. I was hoping some of you more knowledgeable folks could help:
1. Is the bezel and the insert the same thing?
2. Can the part with the letters/numbers be changed?
3. Can I do it myself? ( I have several watch tools)
4. Is there a source for replacement bezels?
5. Do they have to be authenticated Omega or are there after-market bezels?
6. Are they sold by diameter?
thanks everybody. This is a great group.
