bezel inlay popped out of my Invicta diver

luckily I found it and it was still in fine condition, I think I should be able to repair it with a dab of super glue

DO NOT use super glue. The fumes have been known to gum up the movements of watches and cause them not to run.

The better option is a contact cement that does not have those fumes. Or better yet, look at Jules Borel or Otto Frei for watch glues. Again do not use super glue, it can and will mess up your watch.

thanks for the tip, just regular contact cement from the hardware store? I dont want to spend a lot of money on fixing this because the watch was only $60

Incomming: Seiko "Land Monster" SNM035. Kind of excited about this one. It's not as mod-able as the standard OM and BM, but I don't really do any moding past changing bands anyway.

Make the 3rd diver this year already. I must be on some kind of kick.

Here is my best watch purchase to date. It is a Bernhardt Globemaster GMT with a ETA movement. E-man67 found it for me. Thanks Eric! I absolutely love this watch.

I did this because I used this picture on a watch forum as well. Unscrupulous people scour watch forums and use your pictures in their fake e-bay auctions. If they don't have a valid editon # it makes it harder for them to sell their fakes.

Very nice. I like Omega out of the big brands. Their manufactury really looks like one with smoke stacks and all. It's more centralized to one compound than Breitling or Rolex is and the use the grey and red accents through out. The bus stop in front is named "Omega" too. Our shop is down the street from Omega.
