41mm Ceramic Sub full bezel assembly
Good afternoon ladies and gents,
I have a 126610LN and recently purchased a factory full bezel assembly for it to change up the look every once in a while. I read that changing the ceramic insert was a PITA but as far as the complete assembly is that even doable? I live in Miami, FL so if anyone can recommend a good place to take my watch so I can get the bezel installed I would greatly appreciate it. I had purchased the 126610LV complete bezel assembly so I’m ecstatic to change the look every once in a while to appreciate. I did read about some gasket or O ring that needs to get replaced? Any input is much appreciated. Thank you in advance

Hola, lleva un anillo de nailon que es la fijación y siempre que se levanta el bisel hay que poner un anillo nuevo. Se puede usar el viejo? Si, pero corres el riesgo de perderlo pues es la pieza que lo sujeta.

Yes there's a washer gasket that keeps it in place. You can take the bezel off with a knife just like the old ones but pressing it back on the case needs a tool to do it evenly, otherwise you damage said gasket and it won't turn or stay on the case.

Hello, it has a nylon ring and when the bezel is lifted you should use a new ring. Can you use the old one? Yes, but you run the risk of losing it because it is the part that holds it.

Thank you for your replies! I appreciate it
If I were to take it to a watchmaker, I’m assuming they would know about that correct?

Not all watchmakers are created equal.
