Also for anyone wanting to know how the colours and overall appearance matches the gen....here’s a quick snap of my v4 with a similar angle and lighting to one of my favourite shots of the gen.

A bezel removal tool is probably best bet. Movement and crystal being removed just to get to inside edge of the insert doesn’t make sense!

It will press fit on and off using a click spring so no need to dismantle the watch.

Check you tube for videos of the old style Seamaster, I expect this is the same mechanism. (I will stand to be corrected though!)

Removed the bezel, it was actually very easy to remove without damaging anything, using a caseback tool with plastic over the top so no metal was in contact with the watch. Once the bezel was removed I eased the insert away from the adhesive holding it in place, cleaned up the remains of the old adhesive, then reinstalled the bezel. I then used a small amount of gs hypo cement on the insert and positioned it correctly in the bezel. I prefer hypo cement as you can still adjust the positioning after you’ve fitted the bezel insert, unlike with adhesive tape.

Titanium mesh? Not yet or ever by the looks of it.

But this cwc military vintage grey nato (modified to a single pass nato) serves the colour and overall style really well.

Just got my watch back from service from Domi, which did a nice job servicing the movement (its much quieter now) and aligning the bezel inlay with the bezel. Put it on a very cheap aliexpress army green strap (I am pretty sure its the factory Barton sources its straps, as it looks completely identical) and i must say it looks quite nice now.

You must tell us of this aliexpress store so that we may also indulge in this information

Quick question, what's the actual difference between the rep crystal and the gen? I'm thinking of replacing the crystal.
