How'd that gen service insert fit? Did it snap into place nice?
Thanks man. No it took some special work for sure. Had to put in in the freezer and heat up the bezel to get it to fit. Also some dish soap for a little lubricant. It was pretty stubborn.

Oh man! Sorry to hear this! I've just purchased a gen insert for my veit Tudor I guess we'll see about the fit, I just don't want to shave a gen insert!

you might have to convince it a little. I didn’t have to shave it at all. If it comes to that take a file to the bezel instead of the insert.

I'm hoping no trimming is necessary on either end.. hoping the dish soap idea will work...lol


Where did you purchase your veit case if I may ask. Are our cases the same? How comes yourz is a 2836 base, when mine is 2824 base.
