Huge congrats, Ed!! Now we'll be able to tell ours apart since you had the cyclops removed. That's a keeper.

Hey Ed,
Did you get the whole watch or just the GMT bezel from JM?

Joji,
its my old sar. i removed the cyclops then our friend "found" a spare bezel. he MIGHT eventually have another batch of these things and when he does i will be the first to know. so everyone dont panic! i will be sure everyone has ample warning to get one!! |

Did you had any difficulty with removing the original bezel?

i didnt do the install..... i had a "friend" do it. i think he just put the watch in the microwave and used defrost mode until the factory bezel melted off. then slapped the new one on. totally kidding.
the bezel had to be removed, heated and then the old insert came off, new one on, then reinstall the bezel |
