So, I’ve messed about (lightly) with plenty of my watches - including changing bezels and stuff on probably 10 of mine, never had much of a problem... until now!
I had my new Seiko Turtle Blue Lagoon and thought how nice it would be with a coin-edge bezel. Having one spare, as I had modded a Turtle previously - without issue - I leapt to work, confident of a 5 min job.
Taped off the case, and the knife to prize the bezel off. (Ran out of electrical tape so doubled-up on sellotape.)
Bezel was very tight so had to put quite some leverage in, and really should have had been working in better light, not on the coffee table at dusk - as I didn’t notice a small burr on the back of the knife blade, that promptly gouged half a dozen decent scratches into the watchcase!!
Ffffffuuuuuu...... you can guess the rest.
