Luminor Case Bezel Removal?

[jc368]

Just wondering if anyone has any info on removing the bezel of a luminor pam (177 in case it matters)? I've done some searching but can only find threads on removing the bezel from the submersible models.

Reason for the question is I've had the watch for 6 months or so and just noticed there's a defect on the bezel where it meets the case - looks like a manufacturing error - and I'm wondering if it's a DIY job to replace. Obviously it's not too bad as I haven't noticed it until now, but it's bugging me and I love the watch so quite fancy replacing it. I'll post some pics when I have my camera in case anyone is interested.

Related question - assuming this is possible, does anyone have a ti bezel for sale?

If it's a little gap in the bezel with circular shape it's completely normal, indeed it's the bezel pring notch for removal. All the Luminor bezels have it.

Cheers !!

It is - a small gap in the shape of a circular segment.

That makes perfect sense. Guess the reason I was confused is the only other luminor I've seen is an old (and much worse) rep which didn't have it.

Thanks hrail!
