    Planet Ocean - loose bezel

    I have a 2500 PO with a loose bezel, Loose enough that if I brush the watch against my leg, the sofa etc. that it turns. The bezel also has some slight play in it. Apart from that, the watch is running absolutely spot on. My question is, is this most likely a new bezel spring required and is that something that a local watchmaker could easily sort or is it back to Omega for a full service (which the watch doesn't really need?

    Thanks for any advice.

    You may be able to bend the spring in an effort to give a bit of tension, if it uses the older style springs, if one of the disks with the three prongs it may need replacing.
    It’s worth taking it to a local / independent watch maker to see what they can do.

    If you could get to an AD with an onsite watch repair person they may be able to help on the spot? I’ve had good service in the past, but that was a few years ago.

    These say they have service centre - maybe give them a call?:

    Thanks all, not having a lot of luck TBH, local independants won't touch it, ususally saying they cant get Omega spares but in reality, they probably just don't want to. Lunns listed above is the Omega AD in Belfast as far as I know and will want to return to Omega for a full service. A local watch dealer is trying his sources for me to see if anyone is willing to look at it.
