Dont even try it, many people have tried to tighten them and only destroy them trying to pry them off, myself included on a chrono avenger. BTW, the screws are fake, the dont hold the bezel to the case nor do the unscrew.

It also depends on which version you have. On my good older ti version of the Avenger Seawolf, the screws most certainly screw into the bezel. I've previously taken them out and used removable loctite on them so they don't unscrew and come out.

If you have the old version of the CA (same factory as my old SW) with the correct bezel, it should be a similar situation. Check which version you have first.

Also you can ask Taka specifically about the CA, he's ripped apart a few.

The poor quality newer avenger reps are the ones that most likely have the press/glue on screws. These have the closed 4 and big blob pearl.

Thanks guys I should have said i's a Super Avenger. I am putting a gen bezel on it and just figured out you need to force the old one off.
I was worried that I may hurt it but it is fine.
