What am I doing wrong? I cannot get this bezel back on this VSF case.

Ball springs have been lightly greased...

Could just be me but there looks to be an issue with the spring at your 7 o’clock position (could just be my eyes and the video though). Also, you might want to have a look at the gasket. Bigger pictures might help with the diagnosis.

No expert on the 6 digits but I think you're missing the rubber gasket inside the bezel?

thanks for the reply- the basket might be a bit loose- I don't think there usually was a spring a 7 o'clock - am I wrong?

... And at 7 o clock there is the piece which is responsible for the clicking. Looks like it's pressed inside

Now it's good. The pin should just slightly look over the top of the case. Have you tried to put the ring inside of the bezel?
