Anyone have any suggestions regarding the best place to buy an aftermarket diamond bezel of good quality for a good price?

Have Rolex give you a genuine Diamond Bezel when you have it serviced. The diamonds will be of a higher quality, but it may be a bit more expensive. Just think of it as your paying extra to be assured that it is done properly.

I would say it will cost more than just a "bit" more.

It will be much more, much direct from Rolex.
FWIW. I have been down the aftermarket diamond bezel/dial route with my wife's date. The diamonds fell off more than once. PITA. The watch is now 100% factory Rolex and time period correct might I add. I will never mess with any of the aftermarket stuff anymore, just isn't up to the caliber of the rest of the watch.
I'm just giving my experience.
