OK, in desperation to realign KW PAM 569 bezel - I tried this method - and KW bezel is the same friction cap as in Noob creations and in this tutorial. Now my bezel is perfectly aligned.

Anyone know how it looks with a ZF Pam 382 bronzo? Are they screwd in and alignable?

Yeah I have a PAM569 and the misalignment is starting to bother me but I hesitate to remove the bezel... Can someone confirm that it is the same on the ZF?

I am currently trying this out on my PAM 243 Noob. Got the bezel removed. But I have one problem, the bezel marker screws at the back of the bezel are so damn small. Would like to know which type of screwdriver did you guys use to unscrew the bezel marker screws.

Misaligned Markers? Not lining up with the Indices? No worries. Easy fix. Takes 5 minutes.

1. Tape up your case.
2. Get a couple of exacto blades and a bench knife.
3. work around the four lugs, start with one blade, lift. Add another blade, repeat. Use the bench knife once you get a good clearance. Boom Pops right off.

Don't worry, it's a friction fit cap. I will go back on tight!

If you have a misaligned marker continue to 4. If not, go right to 5 to realign the bezel assembly.

4. Bust off that super glue and unscrew your misaligned bezel marker. Fix it, tighten back up and put on a dab of glue. Done.

5. Remove the tape and line up the 6 and 30, look at 12, see if you like it snap it back on. Done!

Tested and confirmed on V1 and V2 Noob factory. Edit..Zocker says the H Factory model is not the same construction so proceed with caution.

Enjoy > Profit.
Great job. Thanks.
