Hi All

I have a bit of wear on my 2006 '116520' Bezel and my OCD is telling me to replace..

has anyone had any experience of replacing and know the approximate cost when in for service..?

many thanks..

Idk but why not just polish it and have the numbers “re-inked”?

Just curious - who would do that? I mean the re-inking part? I don't think it's actual ink, is it?

Yeah I doubt it’s ink also. That’s why it’s in quotes.

I’d explore that option if my bezel numbers were fading. I’d rather have it repainted if less costly then buying a new bezel.

I think around 800$, much cheaper than the ceramic

The bezel is relatively cheap for a Daytona if replaced during a service; not more than a couple hundred if that.

It would be unusual for them to simply replace it for you, and if you try to get one on the open-market, you will likely pay as much as a fresh service would cost you.

Past month I got quoted € 220 by the AD for a 116520 steel bezel replacement as part of a service.
