Bezel problem on 16610

Good morning all I have just noticed after rotating my bezel this morning on my 16610 that in certain parts of the bezel when you put a little bit of movement I the opposite direction it moves clockwise . The spring also feels inconsistently smooth . Does anyone else know of any faults or issues like this . Worried about my pride and joy now lol .

Very cheap its basically just a bit of bent spring wire,even possible if you take your bezel of to re-bend to make spring tighter in the click stop.

If you take it out yourself be careful. A DIY job but don't lose it. Do it over a towel etc. If dropped on the carpet could be hard to find.
