I've never attempted it myself, but the Navi bezel is pressure fitted so you will need special tools to remove it without damaging the case or the bezel.

I have no idea but I'm wondering why you would want to. Please don't say that you're gonna put diamonds on it or some crap.

Masking tape in small pieces applied to the area of the crystal area at risk will do fine. I've worked on chimneys and rider tabs of standard bezel Breitlings without a problem after spending a little time protecting the crystal with tape. And I'm of the ham-fisted variety.

Besides, the crystal on a Navi is attached to the bezel.

:yeahthat I've had great success with the "tape and polish" method. I, however, have the hands of a surgeon. :wink: :lol:

:yeahthat The Navi bezel is best not messed with my DIY hands! As Sharkman said, a little masking tape and a little care and everything will be fine.
