So I got a bp 16600 and previous owner glued in a fat 4 bezel insert, I love the bezel insert but the bezel wont rotate.... I assume he got glue behind the insert and now the bezel wont turn. Any ideas on how to remedy this without hurting the insert? I know acetone works but dont wan a mess up the insert.

Just lever the bezel ring off the case, then prise the insert out. There was probably some residual oils on the parts before he glued them together which means the bond won't be very strong.

Is it pretty easy to do on the bp SD? like a case knife at 7 o'clock and pop it off? Haven't messed with this model before

Yes, t lever it off gently with a knife, watch out for the click spring inside at 11 o'clock.
