I’ve tried lining it up with the screen and pushing it in about 50 times now and everytime I do it clicks, but after rotating it a few times the bezel locks and I can’t rotate it anymore. YES all the ball bearings are in the right place, YES the springs are in the right place. There’s this little plastic piece that I can’t tell if it goes inside the bezel piece or if it goes on top of the watch next to the ball bearings. I’m able to get the bezel back on when I put the little plastic piece on the bezel, it clicks right in, but it locks up. When I leave the little plastic piece on the watch I can’t get it to click in at all. I think I just royally f’ed up my watch!
put the plastic ring in the bezel first. make sure the the legs on the plastic ring are facing the watch an not the bezel. i lost 2 springs though. be careful when cleaning and tilting.
did u manage to fix it?
