Now you need to shop around for a black bezel insert because that is a very cool mod you can do when the green gets a bit too much for you
That was part of my plan with this watch. I have no idea how to swap it. Will keep my eyes open for a black bezel insert.

Yes, well changing a bezel insert isn't exactly like changing a strap on a Panerai.

I think you need to know what you are doing and personally I would not change the bezel insert myself, I would leave it to someone who I trusted and knew what they were doing. The last thing you would want is for you to put a scar on the lugs of your new LV

Definitely a nice pick up!! I like the original LV more than the new ceramic. The colors are more vibrant!!

Looks John Congratulations The bezel is really simple to pop off. Just take care in putting a piece of masking tape on the lugs first
