Bezel inserts
Re: Bezel inserts
Any chance of someone doing a green dial black bezel mock-up please.
Not that I'd buy another C60 personally, one is enough, but curious to see how it would look. The green bezel black dial is nice.

The Clach77 Lotus works a treat, I'd probably sell my orange C60 and switch to that.scooter wrote:Tetlee

Not recommended, but you can always do this if you can obtain a spare bezel. CWL won't sell you one.
Really not recommended - How not to change the bezel

Re: Bezel inserts
Hi Kip,thanks for the tip,Oh my goodness was he serious? I will just look at the photoshop ones
Re: Bezel inserts
I'd love to be able to pop a black bezel on my C7 IRR ...would look great
Also, it would convince me to invest in a black C60 COSC, which I'd just have to test with an orange bezel!

He is using what looks to be a cheap knive, I assume that if I used one of my razor sharp Japanese kitchen knives that would be ok?

Re: Bezel inserts
Surely CW could offer this as a post sale option? They could make a decent amount of money for not a great deal of time/effort...

Re: Bezel inserts
The red bezel on the black dial looks the dogs dodahs. Wouldn't say no to a Pepsi bezel either.

In a nutshell that could be the reason why the service isn't available. The Pepsi bezel, or whatever variant it was attached to, is highly coveted by many here. Simply adding one here and there would never do.
I don't mind a Pepsi, in fact I like them. But I prefer a single colour bezel. I could do an Orient. I probably wouldn't stretch to a CW/Steinhart and the Rolex GMT that I've seen would be way off the scale. Great looking but I'd see it as an indulgence to top up a collection....

Re: Bezel inserts
Is it the same dimensions as the Steinhart Ocean?Kip wrote:I have tried to find some generic inserts of the appropriate size and have been unsuccessful. All I ever find are generics for Rolex and Omegas and they don't seem to match up.
Has anyone else looked?

Re: Bezel inserts
Don't know. I don't have the Steinhart specs. I do have an Ocean 1 42mm I can check against though.
