Help finding the best ceramic bezel insert with pearl

[soren]

I have talk to connie...kings right? she would ask the factory..if possible that i could buy the insert/bezel....but i have to wait for the chinese new year....

i think i would go for the king inser if possible.

funniest thing with this hobby....sit......and........wait........

That's what I called the "Trevor-insert" 'cause AFAIK Trevor came up with it first, quite a while back. It has the slightly too big knob of a pearl with a white-plastic-like pearl material, that is almost flat on top.

Still looks very nice once installed, much nicer than the standard noob insert, and you ask me also much more like the real deal, due to the better engravings and the flat top triangle.

REALLY don't intend to dump on your insert, just for the sake of being transparent here: Connie's "pearl mod insert" - for lack of a better term - has a different pearl: more "pearlish", overall smaller, looks more like gen.

Would be interesting if Connie sells her insert only....?

etc.

so, here as promised the pictures from the installed bezel.

i am quiet happy even though it is not 100% gen like. (but good enough for this cheapish DSSD.)

wow peda..con grats....how did you change the insert? was it a easy fix? does your crystal sit perfect? my is a little to low on the one side...

thanks mate.

i tried to use the method explaind here by Omega88: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/how-change-replica-75273

but unfortunallty the bezel didn't come off that way (and i scratched the bezel a bit )

then i heated it up (as recommended by some other users around) and i managed to get it out. Wasn't as easy as i hoped (took some time and force) but i know now that my old bezel was REALLY scratchproof (beside of the white fillings).

My crystal is flat on but i have seen somewhere a fix for that as well somewhere around while i was looking for help with the bezel.
