Bezels
I have a 16613 submariner that I need to replace the ceramic bezel, black and gold. Do I need that specific model or will other bezels fit? Thanks.

I really don't think your 16613 has a ceramic bezel.

Ok, even better. Is it plastic? I have a 1/4 inch crack next to the top triangle. Any idea as to replacement costs?

Easy fix, just needs a new insert. Should cost you about $50 from a dealership

Great, thank you Chris. I thought it was going to be considerably more.

Hopefully I don't get flamed for this next comment, but if you are an owner of a TT Sub, lets say in your case the Black/Gold combination, is there anybody out there who would buy from there dealership a Blue Sub dial only and Gold insert ring all authentic Rolex parts of course then they could alternate between the two versions for a fraction of the cost? Or is this blasphemy?

For me, my preference is the black and gold. I have no interest changing. Besides an 18K bezel is not cheap with today's gold prices.
