Glass not flush

[fiestadiz]

Good Day

I am fairly new to the world of reps and was curious what to do if a watch, a PAM390 in this case, was received and the glass did not sit entirely flush.

Is there an easy way to fix this? Would pressing it down pop it into place?

Looking for some suggestions.

Many Thanks,
FD

Is it even?

If it is then your o.k. Most crystals sit higher than the bezel on smooth bezel watches.

If its not even then you need a crystal press. eBay has some cheap ones and offshore has some good ones.

It is not even - Sits higher at 6.

Just looked. eBay crystal press with dies $10.93 SHIPPED!

If you have a Harbor Freight near by they sell a crystal press for $12.99.

Thanks for the advice.

So pressing it with the crystal press would even it out, and allow it to sit flush?
