Help! 6541 Bezel Issue or Not

I'm in the middle getting the missing parts to finally put my 6541 on the wrist. I got hands recently and Saturday I put the bezel back on. Question for the experts; my bezel is original(missing Insert) but when I assembled it doesn't have a click on turning it. I have the original glass retainer too so am I smoking something to think this bezel is suppose to click? lol Yep, it may seem idiotic to ask but what the heck....... Btw, is $10,000 reasonable for a decent original insert, not even a great one IMHO?

It doesn't click, turns freely. Price of an insert is prob more like 12k + for a decent one

pardon my ignorance...but 12k for just the insert?!! Exactly the reason I won't EVER be in the market for a vintage Milgauss...

12K for a nice insert is cheap. No click, of course.

A nice insert is easily $15k +.
