Hi Grant,
The bezel on my 11630MH moves both clockwise and counterclockwise in a "ratcheting" fashion. Perhaps yours is somehow gummed up or rusted due to age(?). The re-issue Autavia from 2003 has a fixed bezel but the original Autavias have bezels that turn. I think the Autavia with the decompression bezel (11630P?)only rotates in one direction.
As far as installing the new bezel insert, the seller does provide somewhat limited directions but I personally would be afraid I might scratch the top of the watch case (you "pry" off the entire bezel with a jeweler's knive or blade) so I'll take mine to a jeweler for installation when my current bezel warrants replacement. Popping the insert into the bezel would also have to be done carefully so one doesn't scratch it, I would imagine. It's supposed to be a pressure fit, starting at the 12:00 position and so forth. Again, I'd feel more comfortable letting a jeweler do this for me.
Does anyone else have personal experience with this installation?
Thanks,
Steve
