Let’s start with saying that I love everything with this watch and like many others the only thing that bothered me was the loose bezel turning without the right amount of tension.
By now we all know the holes drilled into the case are much deeper than the springs supplied therefore causing the click buttons to sit lower than needed for a better contact. So went on a search and found the following on amazon and purchased the 6.5mm knowing that I can trim one end to correct size.
Now that solves only one part of this issue, I found the tension ring is not thick enough to make a solid contact when pressed in to position to give you the tightness needed when turned. For this I used Teflon plumbers tape, thin enough to not damage the tension ring but thin enough to compensate for the size. Remember to wrap this only once and trim the access with a blade . Also wrap this counter clockwise.
Now you can put it back together and feel the difference.
The solution is amazing and bezel turns with the correct tension.
I hope this helps everyone.
