Thanks. Easy

I've had my quartz Pro Diver for about 4 years and the bezel has always been very tight and difficult to set. I love it anyway but the bezel action has kind of limited the wearability. Now after using this tip it's like a whole new watch. Thank you!

This is common then! My crystal shattered into a million pieces on removal!

Very helpful, the background music is very distracting. Respectfully

Thanks for this! I had a stuck bezel and followed your tip and got it working again! I think I had some dirt instead of metal in there but after a bit of water and damp cloth to rotate, it worked!

11 years later, just picked up my first Pro Diver & had the same issue. Can't believe it was that easy of a fix. Thanks for the video! Hope all is well with you after all these years

Why didn't you get the date magnifier on the crystal?

Oops, I talk too fast, it's hard to turn again. I am going to return it.

Got mine today. I followed your instructions and it fixed. Thanks

I wish invictacwould offer ceramic bezel and sapphire crystal options on their Pro-Divers. Nice job, looks great.

Thank you so much for sharing. It's the first video where someone manages to fit a 38mm ceramic insert on a producer. I understand the secret ingredients are elbow grease and patience. Gives me enough confidence to try the same upgrade

If I'm replacing the glass i'm using a sapphire crystal glass but good video anyway

Thanks man!! Great help! 10 years after the video was posted but still helpful.

Would been nice with a domed or double domed sapphire lens

7:35pm 9-1-23. PB Blaster. Let stand for 10-15 minutes. Will spin nicely!

Damn man, you should have been a surgeon! I would have mucked this up before I got started. My hands are much too shaky to undertake such an "operation." Kudos to you my friend.

10 years after this video I confirm that this video could just have been filmed today. I got my Invicta Pro Diver 3 days ago, today I just 'noticed' how hard it was for me to turn the bezel. Took it below the water source, helped myself with some fabric I had at hand, and turned it below the water. It softened out after the second turn and I am amazed how I can just turn it with two fingers and just the right strenght you might expect for a normal use. Note: I have already been to the beach and to the pool with it. It wast just about rotating it under water for a bit. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could you tell me the size of the original Invicta bezel insert? I would like to put one in ceramic

Worked instantly. Thanks for such a common sense way to get that thing moving.

Yep - worked perfect-thanks

Your method really work, thk you so much.

You do a good job you should have more subscribers! Thanks for the reviw.

What I do when working on watches is use a big clear tub with two holes cut for my hands. Working inside an area with no air movement is critical for dust free assembly. I got the idea by watching TH-cam videos of people germinating mushroom mycelium. I have a Vostok mod and a Seiko mod where I used this technique and they both came out flawless.

What size crystal was that, I cracked mine and need to order a new one

Yeah, this really helped my pro diver with the scalloped bezel which was impossible to turn. Thanks a lot. But I don't know yet how it will turn when the water under the bezel dries.

9 years later! Thank you very much for this video.

Thank you, very helpful worked for me as well!!

I fucking love watches

Subscribed!

worked for me! thank you so much!

Excellent video commentary and fix ! Now to take my weekly shower a few days early lol.

Very nice and informative. I still saw some dust particles on the crystal (at least I think so). Perils of not having a clean room. 😝

Oh man…thanks for your very helpful video! Today I received two Pro Divers from Amazon (8926OB and 9094OB). I was really happy with them but their bezels were extremely tight. I let both soak in lukewarm water in the sink then began rotating the bezels under the water. I worked at them for every bit of an hour. Now they work as they should. Much appreciated! 👍🏻

The only thing I hate about invictas is that stupid looking seconds hand

It worked thanks

It worked thanks

I had the exact same problem. After watching this video I put it on a bowl of water and used a towel to turn the bezel 10 or more times under water. And now it is smooth 360 degrees. Thanks for the help man!

it didnt work for me

Holy crap! That worked perfectly. Cheers!

You sound like you have a lot to contribute to knife collectors and enthusiasts. TH-cam needs people like you. Here's hoping for a return to your making knife reviews.

Um, ok, this worked for the quartz version too, which is Invicta 26970. Thank you!

Can you help me I have the same invicta and I have the same problem but it is blocked in me I can't move it in any way, can you help me what I need to do to make my turn work

Do you know if the bezel is the same in the 1953 Invicta as the pro diver?

great quality pics!

I’m gonna try this right now Edit: I’m back. It really worked and the watch I have is the Invicta Pro diver in gold and stainless with a blue-green face

Worked perfectly. A bit of soap and water and the bezel now works as it should

Sir....From where you bought this pen

Finally my nails won't be jagged. The missus says thanks xD
