The bezel on my rep 50th anniversary seamaster isn't right.

It doesnt line up with the notches on the outside of the bezel (the cut out parts).

Are the bezels/bezel inserts easy to get out?

All it needs is the insert taking out, advancing along about 5 degrees, then replacing to line up.

Can anybody help guide me?

I've seen this happen on a gen as well as a few reps. Short of taking the watch apart and prying it off to reapply, the only thing I can think of is using a hair dryer to warm up the glue and then turning it.

Not sure if it would work though. Just an idea that I've never tried.

Thats an interesting idea.

I bought from Ryan - he's suggested i send it back to him - along with a CrPO whose crown pin has come out.
The cost of the postage and time from europe back to him puts me off that idea a bit though
