Trying to change out the bezel insert on my Invicta 8926OB, sadly our usual mod expert did not want to do it as according to him it's not easy to put back?
Any bros here know where else in sg I can get this swap done?
This watch
This bezel

I have my 8926 but yet to change the insert. But I believe it shld be an easy task to do the swap based on my experience with other Invictas. Especially so if your new insert has an adhesive tape at the back.
I would use shave blade to slowly get the old one out then clean the out the glue marks. Then reinsert the insert. Maybe getting the old one out can be challenging.

Oh okay I have zero experience with such things and would be hesitant to try?
Also approached elder Mr. Got at chinatown but he too did not want to touch it. Guess no love for Invicta huh?
Anyone here have experience doing this? Either recommend someone or is willing to "operate" on mine?
