Rolex bezel tutorial

Here I will try to show how you pull off the bezel, the insert and then put it back together again.


I start with this things at the working bench. A cloth, a knife, masking tape,a pair of gloves and of course a Rolex watch.



Here I start with the masking tape, just make sure you get it between the bezel and the case.



Then I put in the knife between the bezel and the case.



And just bend a little until it pop off.



Then I pull off the bezel and be careful so you don´t lose the spring at the 12 o´clock position.



Here is the backside of the bezel and you can see how it works.



Then I press with my thumbs from the backside of the bezel insert until it pop off.



And after that so will it looks like this.



Then I put back the bezel at the case with the spring at the inside.



Then I lay the bezel insert inside the bezel and look so it line up. Then I press it down at the bezel and when it´s there at more than the halfway round I pull off the complete bezel again.

Now I can put the last part together nice and easy.



I do that at the same way as I do when I pull it off, just with my thumbs. No tools like pliers here, that will destroy the bezel insert.



Sometimes it dosen´t works and it´s a pain to get the last part in place. Then I use to put a cloth at the edge of the table and that will help you a lot. With that trick you can´t go wrong.



After that it´s ready for the watch and looks like this.



Then I put it over the spring nice and easy and look carefully so every part is in place.



Now it´s in place and as you can see it should be a little lower at the case so the crystal will be higher than the bezel.



Then I press down the bezel on both side at the same time until I hear a click. When you do that it´s in place. You can even see the crystal come out and the ratchet spring starts to work.



Now the only thing who is left is to see if it lines up.



It looks ok and if not, just do the same thing again.

Good luck and if you don´t feel safe to do the work, just let your watchmaker do it. I´m sure he do it for free.

I hope you have enjoy this trip and you can use the tips.
