Hey all,pardon my ignorance but I'm just guessing that the "bezel" is the glass piece,protecting the hands and dial? Anyway,I have a Breitling chrono that's been discontinued. The saffire/glass part is all scratched up and I don't know whether it can be buffed out or if there's somewhere to get an aftermarket replacement?

The crystal is the glass piece. The bezel is the ring holding the crystal. On a dive watch it is the rotating ring around the crystal. If your crystal is sapphire you are just about SOL on getting the scratches out. If it is acrylic they can be buffed out. Last edited on Sun Sep 23rd, 2007 08:27 am by Scuba Steve |
