PADI Turtle Bezel

Does anyone know if there is a ceramic version of the Pepsi bezel insert available for a PADI Turtle SRPA21? Looking for a replacement that looks like the original to keep the same look but with durability, noticed a scratch in my bezel earlier which looks to be a decal.

Thanks

I understand the new king turtle uses ceramic bezels. Not sure if compatible with non-king turtle.

I don’t think so. They have been slowly making tweaks to the bezels though. The save the ocean turtle has engraved numerals and a radial pattern and looks to have better grip than the padi and black dial turtle. The padi and turtle with black dial have painted on numbers. The new king turtles have ceramic and also a better grip on the side. I imagine just for simplicity they will start to reduce the bezel styles out there rather than keeping so many many.
