Hi folks I'd like to swap the bezel on my 382. I've tried using a bezel removal tool (the vice like device with 4 blades) and it doesn't want to come off easily. Before I go too far and damage the soft metal I wanted to ask if anyone has done such a thing and can advise if I'm on the right track. I'm hearing some pam submersible bezels are one way and I may not be able to replace it. Surely it can't be that bad? Any help appreciated.

Hello.

For sure, the bezel on the PAM382 can be removed and folded back, and at the same time it is normal, pretty easy.

I recommend doing this with a wooden object, or wrapping a metal tool in something so as not to leave it swept away on the metal.
They just snaps under pressure and engaging is removed.

Don't be shy, but be careful and apply the principle of reasonable sufficiency.

A few photos of the panel device for PAM382(V6F) , if this helps you:



And yes, check the factory and version. It certainly does rampant on the V6F and VSF, but the ZF seems to be on the same track.

Thankyou sir for the response. I will try it again based on your recommendation.
