Seamaster bezel question

I was reading Flick's post about popping off his SD bezel. I was wondering if anyone has ever taken off their Seamaster bezel? I am sure that it pops off like the Rolex. I tried to do it once and slipped and that was the end of that. Scared the crap out of me.

I am pretty sure that the Seamaster insert is glued on unlike the Rolex. Mine is just a hair off as well and it bothers me. I am generally a do it your selfer. I generally size and even do the buffing and polishing of mine and my wifes watches. Just something about popping that Seamaster bezel that freaks me out.

Any experience with this?

Not 100% sure but think you have to have some sort of special tool.
