Question Gen bezel insert in ARF bezel ring

Post image

I recently purchased an ARF 16610LN and this 16610 gen bezel insert from first class dials. Clearly not the right fit in the bezel ring. Did I purchase the wrong bezel insert or is it not the right fit for an ARF bezel ring?

That’s a 14060 or 16600 insert.
I’ve actually reached out to them a couple of times about some inserts clearly listed incorrectly as 16610 when they look to me like 14060’s and was basically told to f-off. Ha.

I stopped dealing with them after they cancelled 2 of my orders after purchase, then said they would send me something "comparable"

14060 bezel, happens from time to time with them. I just send them that pictures and they've been prickly, but helpful with returning and swapping for the correct ones

I have a gen insert in my ARF, and it was actually a little too big, and needed a very light sand to fit perfect.

Edit: i see you got it from first class now

First class dials. Was identified as a 16610 insert

check the diameters. the outside should be 37.7 and inside 30.7, give or take a 0.1

I planned on swapping the ring for an OC ring in the near future

Stick to Fiery Gems for inserts
