Bezel has movement up and down "springy" feel . What would the most logical issue be bad machining on case or bezel.

Ffs have two others and they don't move as much as this one

I will look at buddies gen two tone tomorrow but the Batman and the Black I bought don't have the same amount of spring as this arf hulk. Thanks for even considering there my be an issue with a Chinese made rep that someone has seen. I appreciate the positive support from the forum. I will get it figured out and if there is an issue I will post.

I had the same with my ARF 2824 LN Submariner, where I even could turn the bezel in the wrong direction when I wiggle it from 12 to 6. I sold it on to a friend and this is now how my ARF 3135v2 Hulk looks like (which doesn‘t have this issue).

I can't go the other direction that would be a sale for me too. I read another thread about a damaged nylon ring under the bezel that would cause this but not sure if that is a thing.

I read about someone else having a similar issue and he fixed it with floss I think?? Try plumbers tape, it's ptfe (tefrlon) tape no adhesive.

What would I do with the tape? Remove the bezel wrap around Teflon ring and reinstall bezel?

GMT ans Submariner doesn’t have the same bezel assembly you can’t compare both model.

And yes it is normal to have a play upside down because of the ball spring under the bezel
