Re: How To Remove Autavia Bezel
In Response To: How To Remove Autavia Bezel ()

I've done it David.. I'm presuming that the bezel is off the watch...

My method of separating insert from the actual bezel .. thin blade inserted between bezel & insert from underneath/inside, and work your way around every 1/2 cm doing the same and ease it out.

If it is still on the watch and that's what you meant.. this is my method.. use lots of tape to protect.

: I have a bezel insert that I'd like to install on one of my Autavia
: 1163 bezels. I tried to remove it with a knife like a Rolex
: bezel, but it wouldnt budge. Is there a trick to it?
