Hello, am looking for a new DSSD bezel insert. I had heard trevor had them but I don't get any response from him. Does anyone know anywhere else to get one?
Thanks

Trevor's are by far the best but if you can't get hold of him for some reason try Marvellousreplica
Anyone know what version this is? Mary is asking and I have no idea other than it's a 21j and less than a year old. I bought it from a forum member who didn't know anything about it.
I ordered one from Trevor, he shipped yesterday.

Just an FYI, I was quoted $45 shipped for a new bezel. I can get a whole new watch for $75 from price angels, so I'm going that route.
I actually found a decent looking bezel insert on ebay for $17. They were asking $30, but it was a "make an offer" auction and they took $17. I'll report back when I get it.

I don't want to be a party popper but the insert is ugly as hell. The font is incorrect and the triangle is off.

Yeah, I probably should have looked a little closer before I bought it. I'll just sell it back on ebay when I get it and take a $2 loss.
I really just need to fix the pearl/triangle on mine, but I'm not sure what to do with it. The triangle is slightly concave on the right side and the pearl popped off. Any recs would be greatly appreciated, unless they involve me fabricating my own pearl, which is way beyond my skill level. :angry:

IMHO either you order a pearl from WM and replace the one you lost or the insert from either Trevor or Rochest, both look good and straight sides on the triangle.

WM pearl cup is not proper for the ceramic insert. It sits flush not raised, and the holes ID must be opened up a lot to fit. The Lume on the WM pearl is green and not bright at all. IMO your best bet with your skill set, since you said you can't mod the pearl yourself, get a new insert from Trevor.

So you can compare and decide which way you'd rather go. Hope this helps some.
