I would be very interested to see how that looks!

Can you measure out your V6F Watch's Bezel for me from left to right? I am thinking of getting the V6F Bezel Insert for my BP PO GMT [emoji28]

By the way, is the V6F really 43.5mm or is it 42mm as stated in eg. intime.co?

I can try measuring when I get home tonight. At this point, all I can say that it's bigger than my 42" BP and smaller than my 45"TiPO.

Just what I read. A lot of people measure wrong. Companies state case size. The one I've always thought about is the MM300. One says 42mm. That's the bezel. Another 44mm. That's the case. Look at the BPFF. Stated at 45mm. I think it wears larger. The bezel does extend beyond the case, so it wears larger than 45mm.

The Goodplanet's case is larger than bezel, across.

Maybe this might help? The ruler is flat against the crystal.

Fitted a 22mm Rubber Strap to the 21mm Lugs. The only words that suit this work full of elbow grease are

"Pain in the a**"

That's very impressive that you managed to squeeze the 22mm rubber on there. My lungs are actually only 20mm.

My PO GMT is from BP Factory and measures 21mm at the Lugs, Case is 43.5mm.

I fitted that 22mm rubber in there, but I had to bend 22mm Springbars to keep it in there.

And I cut away some of the rubber, which looks crappy.

Short story, just ordered a new rubber where all my experiences withh that watch will help[emoji28]

So, I'm wanting to get a "Prof" crystal put onto my GoodPlanet, AND, need the bezel aligned. Steve can't do the bezel, so I was wondering who (CONUS) could do the work? Pressing the xtal and aligning the bezel. Any recommendations?
