two problems, I tried the new spring from eBay recommended by everyone. it doesn't turn, I gave it a few clicks but with a lot of force. Also my gen insert doesn't fit, it's a little wide.

I think the spring is in a wrong position, not sure but i see somthing sticking out (like the end of it) mabe rubbing against the bezel ring?

unfortunately gen bezel does not fit. I think you also need the retaining ring. I have it but I don't have the tools to replace it, if anyone wants them contact me because I don't know what to do with them

Was the clickspring you purchased from WSO?

I'm talking about the bezel not the spring
Yeah sorry I was asking about the eBay spring you purchased. Was that a WSO spring? The WSO spring I got on eBay also didn’t work properly on the ARF I had…was just wondering which one you purchased? Thanks

Mine is this one, and I can confirm that mine is shit too. The bezel does not turn. Too hard

Is there any tool to remove the retaining ring?
There is some tool with blades that apply even pressure on various points but not sure if its for that purpose.
I always used a razorblade and worked my way around. but its a pain and I hate it xD

a question, for the no rehaut version, to be consistent with the period, which crystal would be suitable? with/without LEC-AR ?

Definitely no AR if you want it correctly.
I think it's correct with and without LEC. Depending on the year
