Guys any tips on how to safely remove the ceramic insert?

Tried pressing the crystal but it popped out leaving the gasket along the insert attached to the case.

Each time I fit out the ceramic bezel, crystal and gasket come with, gasket and crystal are pressed by the bezel to remained in place and be waterproof. Don’t fit out too much the bezel, you could injured the crystal gasket, had this issue with mine even if crystal and gasket are gen, had need to change the gen gasket by a new gen one, hopefully gen crystal comes with 2 gaskets.

i'm not quite sure i fully understand. So you mean that most of the times the crystal and gasket will pop out along the bezel when pressed ? If that's so, i got unlucky cause my crystal popped out leaving the bezel and the gasket attached to the case. So while on a SS bezel i could use a sharp knife to slowly remove raise the bezel from the case, i'm pretty sure that using the same method will damage the ceramic bezel.

I might have to boil the cese :))) and hope the gaseket will soften

When pressed not a problem, used this one

goes perfectly in, more easier than with the steel bezel.

Just protect the case when using the first tool, because could scratch it
