All the photos I see have the pearl aligned at 12:00. There are even posts on the new ceramic bezels moving on their own. I wouldn't have any idea if my bezel moved during the day. I always leave it wherever I set it last.

Dan2010 · 9 April 2011, 04:01 AM

Yes, you are the only one who moves your bezel.........lol..................well you and Padi.............lol

Paracentesis · 9 April 2011, 04:02 AM

I leave it wherever it is, until I take a picture, when I try to remember to reset it to 12.

Jocke · 9 April 2011, 04:07 AM

Here is the solution.

Now bad mounted bezel inserts will be history.

Here is a lot of interesting things inside.

So I have to check what there is in the little box.

So now it´s just to glue it in place.

Here is the first one in place.

And now it line up perfect and you can´t see it´s repaired.

Thanks Rolex this couldn´t been easier, you have done it again.

Johny · 9 April 2011, 04:16 AM

Not uncommon, you might have the "bezel creep disease"

Dan Pierce · 9 April 2011, 04:15 AM

Set it where & when I need it. Back to 12 when I don't.

Len · 9 April 2011, 04:40 AM

Mine is always at 12.

z32turbo · 9 April 2011, 04:43 AM

Are you sure the bezel is intended to move?

Launch Mini · 9 April 2011, 05:09 AM

Are you saying I can move it, so it isn't at the top?? Cool.
I might just give it a try.

In case you did not notice - super glue is included in the repair kit. Buy one - you may get a personalized photo. I did, any I am just gleaming with joy!

If I notice it, I usually move it over to 12...... It's not something I give that much thought to since it really has no relationship to the inner dial..

When I photograph I always set it to 12 so that half the forum membership doesn't have a cow..........

My days of fixing the bezel to appease the crowd are at an end!
I proudly use my bezel all the time. I'm not going to hide it anymore!
And, I'm not wiping the finger prints off either!
