D.I.Y : How to put a Bezel back on

Yes a nice crystal press will work
Try to use a disk that is bigger than the bezel since one smaller might mess up the bezel insert

Also becareful if you have a pearl marker that rises up from the bezel the press might knock it off or make it flat ...And always make sure the gasket inside the bezel is set right .....
If you get the bezel back on and it turns very very stiff you have pinched the gasket into the bezel ...

But if you do not have a press:
place the bezel back on and press down so it starts to work into place then turn the watch over place it on the table place your palm on the back of the case and press down hard and wait for the "pop" or "Click"
Your done, but turn the bezel is smooth ok... if not maybe the bezel gasket is stuck between the bezel and watch or glass ....
You can also wrap the watch with the bezel in place and press against a door frame and push till you hear the "click" ..
