Hydroconquest bezel problem
Hey everyone! I’m three weeks into my Hydroconquest ownership, and when using the bezel to time my pizza last night, it suddenly became VERY easy to turn. Because I can’t leave well enough alone, I removed the bezel and sure enough, one of the four tabs on the click spring was snapped off and sitting under the spring, and the others were bent down. I removed the broken tab, and bent the rest of them up to compensate for the lost finger. It seems fine now, but I’m going to order a new spring for it, and swap it out myself in the future. No sense in sending it out for weeks for a $6 spring and 5 minutes of labor. Anyone else have this issue? I’ve only seen this on old worn out watches.

I wouldn’t know where to begin even removing a bezel lol
Agreed, it's a pain that you had to do it, but with the right experience, the tools, and any kind of press, it is quite easy to do.
This shouldn't happen after 3 weeks.
I’m sorry but I did giggle at “to time my pizza”.
Only a dive watch could ruin a pizza party.

Sorry to hear that though. My HydroConquest is my favorite of the bunch. Can be classed up or down to any occasion. Hope it all gets squared away.
