Paul ArsenaultBezel question on 12s hinged case
I have a Hamilton 12s case that when the dust cover is snapped shut the bezel springs open. Any type of adjustment possible to cure this? Thanks..Paul

William ThomasAn old watchmaker's trick I learned was to lay a piece of string along the hinge and close the cover over it. This bends the cover down very very slightly and can make catch hold the cover a little better. This works if the problem isn't too severe.

Paul ArsenaultLindell & William: Thanks for the response. I did apply a little pressure to the bezel and now it is flush with the case and closes properly. The crystal has been removed and i'm waiting for one from Mike. Thanks for your help. Paul
