Anyone?

If I break it I'll use it for spares...

I've never done it but imagine you would have to take all 8 screws out and try to pry it off...it sounds dangerous

the screws around the bezel don't seem to be what's holding the bezel to the case at all. I saw fleed's pictures. The bezel is very typical of rep bezel (probably some gens use the same mechanism). It has a retaining bent wire which latches onto the grove on the case. So I think you need to pry between the case and the bezel. But it's very tight. I tried the razor blade method and gave up right away.

I was hoping fleed will come on and share his secret.

I tried to loosen one of the bezel screws and they seem to be on verrrry tight, I suppose they are just for decoration, but don't know for sure. It's a very sturdy bezel to say the least...is your bezel not lined up correctly BK?

I took all the screw out - they don't do anything - I think you have to pry the bezel off but it's pretty tough/tight.

I just wanna know if you can access the watch face via taking the bezel off and popping the crystal - or would that require a specialist tool...I just want to tidy the lume up with a cocktail stick so my gift doesn't immediately look like a rep...
