This is a tool for re-crimping the bezel ring back on. I've never seen a tool for removing a bezel ring.

Yep (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) ,also I found out the hard way that the repainted bezel must be left to dry for as long as possible,they tend to get marked easily when refitting otherwise.
Would the professionals sell the bezels on their own ???,surely they would be doing themselves out of some business that way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

I've been sending my rings to Bruce Stone for powder coating with great results. Since they are powdercoated, the paint doesn't chip when reinstalling.
I haven't found any company willing to sell new bezel rings, believe me I tried. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

I think the pros heat them up and have some puller to take them of. otherwise they curl up like a guitar string...

Not sure what is so hard about doing this. Sure the pro tool is very nice, some where some one has a complete article on how to do this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
