Thread: What adhesive for bezel inserts

  1. #1

    What adhesive for bezel inserts

    What's the professional recommendation for sticking on a new bezel insert? Preferably something that's a liquid, I find the various tapes and whatnot add unpleasant height to the situation.

    No bother. That link was just the first one I found, it could probably be had cheaper if you shop around.

    Ordered it from eBay, under £2.50 delivered. Seems to have worked perfectly and superb applicator, thanks again.

    Is the adhesive waterproof? Something to bear in mind if you swim etc with your watch on

    The adhesive pads are made by 3M and are normally stamped to fit the inserts at the factory, I’ve never seen them for sale, they are incredibly strong and water resistant.

    I've just glued one on with superglue (from Poundworld) which seems to work quite well - not sure how long it'll last though :)

    Where did you get that dial? I really want a right sided crown on my same citizen leftie. Is the dial stuck on the movement holding ring or does it use dial feet?
