Remove bezel of luminor sub

[fredrik80]

A quick question, how do i safely remove the bezel of kw/v6 luminor sub? I read in a therad about markers and pearl not being always perfectly glued, so i thought i'd remove bezel and refasten the markers for futureproofing, but i dont want to ruin bezel by trying. Has anyone done it? One of them is the ceramic 508 so i want to be careful and do it right

get something strong and flat and skinny enough to have a prying effect! or a bezel removal tool from Ebay. push in an pop up. tape off the sections you pry up on. cheers.

I have a thin caseback opening knife, will try that. How about getting it back on, is it just a matter of aligning it with the teeth and pushing it back on?

Replacing it is simple, you don't have to align any teeth as the outer part of the bezel is all that will pop off. Just line up the pearl, be sure it is centered and press. You may need a rubber mallet because it is pressure fit and very tight.
