Is this possible? I've been looking for a way to mod my watch because the bezel is really faded.

I found one on eBay and was wondering before I spent my money..

Regular or ceramic PO? 42mm or 45.5mm?

Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=271307607322



I don't know what happened to the black one I guess I didn't put it in my "watch" section on eBay lol..but ofrei also offers just the bezel insert a bit cheaper then this one. I just bought an after market bezel to test before I spent the $ on a gen...

That's my listing over there! Item is also listed here for a lot less money of course...

Do you mind sharing the link on ofrei also? I haven't spotted it...

I think you both Talking different Language :) hehe...

@Psantos you Show us an Pic of an 45mm Ceramic PO and then you Show us an link on the Bay with an Bezel with Metal Insert...
So you can use the Bezel with that insert on your Base Watch (Ceramic)
But if you use that you Must change the Dial, Hands too...
If you think to do that you can Buy the Bezel from PAP for a less more $$$

If you want Hold the Watch in Ceramic Style you Need an Ceramic Insert... And there you can only ask TD for an New One...

There are NO Ceramic Aftermarktet Inserts atm and if you are Lucky you can find One Gen on the Bay for around 500,-$ but wie Talk about the insert only...

2nd prob will be to fit the Ceramic insert into the Rep. Bezel... No Chance as it seems... I Personaly haven't Test it yet... But i have Check the size of the Ceramic insert with an Friend Gen PO Ceramic... And it seems to be different size...

So best Thing will be... Buy PAP's Bezel and get and Gen or Rep. Dial and Hands ;)

Q5 he can do... But if he do, he Must change many Parts...
He Must Build up the Watch as PO Kalibre 2500 and Not as 8500 :)

But it is possible to install the Gen Bezel on that Rep. ;)

Go to offrei and look up OME-082SU1703

That part number is for the regular PO bezel not the ceramic.

I am also a littlbe bit confused, are you planning to install an after market bezel from a regular PO into the ceramic one? Cause that wont look not good at all, the thickness difference is quite big.

No I wanted ceramic.... :thud:
After the replies on this thread I decided to give up and just contacted the TD for a replacement insert.

Thanks
