The screws _look_ fine but they easily scratch on surface and bend.

Re loctite: I've never had an issue where the screws don't stick, which (in general) is the case if I use loctite on screws. Plus if you do use loctite you really have an issue if you ever wanna switch bezel/sapphire due to damage. So I would never do that myself.

Ya. Knife parts might not be as "delicate" as watch parts. I've even used a dab of clear nail polish if I'm worried about blue LocTite being to much of an aggressive hold. I'd probably reserve the LocTite for knives and guns [emoji106]

I recon all the TDs can get them but I asked a few TDs who said NO. Maybe cause they consider it a small order or don't make much money off them, dunno. I bought 3 matte black ceramic V1 4.5 teeth from Toro (along with 2 Hublot watches), then he sourced me another 3 shiny black ceramic V1 4.5 teeth in a separate order a couple of weeks later.

Yeah you need the H screwdriver and you can use the same screws. You have 4 longer screws and the screws @2 + @4 are shorter. It's not hard to switch at all but you need to be careful as the screws scratch rather easily. I'm thinking about writing a little tutorial for people doing it for the first time with a few tips. Just cause I know I was shit paranoid to damage anything the first couple of times I did it.

Here is my Black Magic (which is getting croc strap within a few days) with V1 4.5 teeth matte bezel
PS: Disregard what looks like a red line on the side photo, there's no mark there. Something happened with lighting on the iphone photo, dunno

Is it me, or does the face on that first watch link you posted look cocked to the right slightly?

Use a straightedge, and follow the hand with the "H" all the way up. It is not centered between the two band screws, yet leans more towards the right one...

I noticed this kind of stuff with the naked eye but then check once I notice it with a straight edge. That would drive me absolutely bananas if I got a watch that had a crooked face in it; I'd never even be able to wear it knowing that...OCD [emoji1]

Wonder why the pic disappeared. Is there some resolution limit on here?
