Hi Roffensian, i unscrew by myself the 4 screws from the bazel for my breitling bentley.
I send the bazel to jewellery shop to put some diamonds in the bazel.
I damage two screws can i get it new from somewher?
Did i need some bolt glue on the screws when i will put the bazel back?
Many thanks.

You will need to order replacement screws, an AD may help you but they aren't always keen to sell replacement parts. You might be better getting the AD to replace the bezel if you damaged half the screws removing it. The screws should have been left in the bezel as getting them reseated can be a PITA. You don't need threadlock if put on properly.

AD = Authorized Dealer ie a guy that can get you the right parts

PITA = Pain in the A$$

Mine is a similar issue so perhaps this tread might be better. I bought a used superoean. The bezel tirns very very very stiffly. A few points in the 360 degree rotation are extra stiff as well. The watch had gotten a light polish by a watchmaker before my purchase. Not sure if he polished the bezel of the watch, but i doubt it. Could it be that the screws are screwed in too tightly?


Thanks in advance.

No, much more likely it has dirt (or polish) underneath the bezel.

Thanks for that! Should i attempt a clean in my own or ask the watch maker?

Unless you have the right tools I would have a watchmaker do it, as you see from the OP of this thread it is easy to damage the screws.
