Cuestion about bezel?

Is there any difference between the original bezel that cames from factory with the watch and another bezel from rolex service? Thanks

Hmmmmm...I don't think so. If it was the crystal, yes. I'll let the pros chime in.

There's no difference between original and service inserts, both come from the same factory. We talk about Rolex genuine inserts fo course.

Regarding GMT/GMT2, there's 2 different versions of inserts, plus the ceramic ones. One is for plexi crystal (fitting 1675/16750) and one is for saphir crystal (fitting 16760/16700/16710). They aren't compatible, so be carefull when you buy one.

Rolex policy avoid AD to simply sell you one, they have to keep yours if you want to buy a new one. For that reason you need to look at the "For sale" section here or elsewhere.


Annexe:
For plexi crystal (no coke available):
-----------------------------------
Black with white numbers 315-16750-1
Red/Blue with white numbers 315-16750-6
Bronze/Yellow with yellow numbers 315-16753-5
Black with yellow numbers 315-16753-1
Black with yellow numbers 315-16758-1
Bronze with yellow numbers 315-1675-3
Bronze with yellow numbers 315-16758-3

For saphir crystal:
-----------------
Black/Red with white numbers 315-16760-7 / 315-16760-17
Black with white numbers 315-16700-1 / 315-16700-11
Red/Blue with white numbers 315-16700-6 / 315-16700-16
Bronze/Yellow with yellow numbers 315-16713-5 / 315-16713-15
Black with yellow numbers 315-16718-1 /315-16718-11
Bronze with yellow numbers 315-16718-3
