226570 Bezel does not sit Flush after crystal replacement

[Ketelbinkie]

After replacing crystal I cant get the bezel to get al the way down again.

I've got this setup now, and I'm wandering if the gasket is put in wrong or did I miss something else...

I did it exactly like this guy (besides that I wear gloves). Maybe I just need to press a bit more fanatic

Are you using a die or pressing by hand? You need a die.

The second thing is that you need to check gasket height and such. Not every crystal works with stock gasket.

I use a die, I got the gen gasket with the gen crystal. Tried one the gen, maybe the original will fit!
Thanks for the tip

A lot of times rep gaskets are thinner than gen so you may need to sand it to reduce the diameter slightly. I would recommend reusing the original rep gasket as the easiest fix.
