Is there anyone out there who can help me? I'm desperately looking for a bezel for my Seamaster Deep Blue that currently looks pretty naked and unattractive:



Many thanks for feedback!

The bezel is discontinued, but the part number is 082ST1660088, so having that may help in your search...

Did you ever find a source for the bezel? I sent mine back to the factory hoping they would have one - but alas they do not stock them. HAs anyone found a source? or at least a broken watch being parted-out?

I think it goes to Omega's policy of not providing case parts to prevent conterfeits (they consider the bezel part of the case). or at least that is what the customer service in Switzerland told me. My hunt for a broken one continues!

They provide service case parts for many vintage models. But I’m assuming that if the parts aren’t in high enough demand, what’s lingering in stock eventually trickles out for service and they don’t contract another run.

Do you still have the outer metal bezel or is the bezel completely missing?
