Yesterday my watch flew in the air and landed on the solid concrete floor in my garage. At first I could’nt see any damage, but today I noticed that the bezel is very loose and can be turned both ways... Any solutions how to fix this? And to her the bezel off?

How did that happen? Seems like it’s one of the uber rare watches ARF made that are spring loaded..

And did you try to catch it? If it’s one of the said batch, it also has an anticatch mechanism.

Funny guys ;P I acutally take the watch off when I drive upon the mailbox to avvid scratches, and placed it in my lap. Walked out og the car with the watch in my lap.. success!

The bezel stops at 12 on its way back, but the noise is poor and the possibility tu turn it the wrong way is pretty annoing..

You’re removing your watch, when you pass the mailbox in the car to avoid scratches? Is your car imaginary or is your mailbox very very big? Or does a watch on your wrist impact your parking skills?
