No, the bezel and insert can’t be separated.
On my first PO I would swap out the bezel all the time. I had this exact watch and bought a spare black bezel. That was when you could still source parts outside of Omega. I then found a guy who made a silicone bezel remover. It was a perfect fit and would have the bezel off and on in seconds. I also had a couple extra click springs in case one wore out but was never a problem.
In under 5 min I would swap out the bezel and strap and have a completely different looking watch.
