Seawolf Avenger Loose Bezel...

Any advice on how to tighten it up? Getting the bezel off isn't a problem. I've adjusted the spring slightly so the clicks are more "positive". It still feels sloppy if you press it down on one side.

I've heard they can be tightened up, but I haven't seen any hints on how to do it.

Thanks!

You have to remove the bezel by using bezel removal tools or a blunt side of pen knife. You can apply scotch tape around the inner part of the bezel to make it tight and smooth. then put the bezel back just by pushing the bezel back into place.

OK don't laugh but I took waxed floss and looped it around and under the bezel then pulled tight. clipped the ends and tucked it in with a thin piece of metal and it has stayed put and tight ever since. It is also waterproof! LOL

That is a brilliant and simple solution. I will have to try that.

Thanks for the tip, I'll try the minty fresh dental floss first. 8)

The dental floss worked wonderfully.

If anyone else has tried a different method with success, please post.
