I recently purchased this rep from a TD that I researched here and made contact through the site. I received the watch and the entire process went exactly as it should of. Very easy, and everything went smooth. My only issue with the watch was when I recie3ved it the the bezel is loose (I posted link to video below). I reached out to the TD and they said that this was normal for this version of a Clean Factory Best Edition 1:1 of this watch. I wanted to know if this was true and if anyone had experience with the loose/wobly bezel. Any infomation or advise is welcome. I am not sure if this issue makes it worth it to me to go through a return process, but it didn't meet my expectations and has kind of made me think twice about buying another.

There’s a bezel fix guide for this gmt from clean. You can find it in the stickied threads on the Rolex sub forum here. I could be wrong, but bending your click spring will likely tighten that up. Proceed with caution, I’ve read of a few users breaking their insert during the bezel removal!

I can’t open your video for some reason, but it’s a relatively well-known issue. There are quite a few good threads here on how you can fix it, such as this one:

This worked perfectly. I did the second option, the one when you don't have to buy a factory spring.
