Re: Change Heuer Autavia bezel
In Response To: Re: Change Heuer Autavia bezel ()

Hi Martin

Thanks for your answer.

Originally this watch was sold with a MH Bezel (if I'm not wrong) that's why I bought this aftermarket model...

Are you suggesting I leave it with the TACHY?
Do you know if TAG Heuer is able to find the right bezel if I leave them the watch?

Thanks

Julien

: Julien,

: Im not sure where the MH Bezel you have is from, but with the pearl
: stuck on I'm not convinced it is a genuine one, so therefore may
: not be an easy fit (Stewart M) has experience of fitting
: aftermarket bezel inserts so I'm sure he may chip in, but there
: may be some work involved!

: The Tachy insert you have is a lovely NOS item from what I know, so
: I would be loathe to damage it. Inserts for 11630 and 15630 are
: hard to get hold of, MH almost impossible, so my advice would be
: don't rush at it. Better to get an old worn bezel if you can and
: play with fitting the MH insert to that first to see how you go.
