I have used clear resin before to both stablize and make from scratch a bezel insert.
Here is one I made earlier for a Waltham/Blancpain diver, I gave it a blast in the oven to age it a bit instead of letting the resin cure clear this one has tiny bubbles and heat has strunk the transfers a little, I think it looks period to the watch and is as tough as old boots.
Tools needed>
Clear resin (two component mix)
Black enamel paint.
Transfers used for model trains/planes
I used coving adhesive mixed with coffee to create the aged radium 60 marker.
I apply the resin blobbed onto the end of a cocktail stick,the resin self levels if the bezel is on a flat surface.
All a bit blue Peter and I am sure some will take the fun out of me but it looks much better than nothing and with a bit of practice I think you will get superb results.
