    Hi there, I dented the stainless steel bezel of my Carrera Cal 8 GMT at the 11 o' clock position (dent, not scratches) about 4mm long. It's only visible if you look for it, and I was told to just let it be, but I'm a bit obsessive, so would like to ask if it's possible to have the bezel replaced by TAG. The bezel has a mirror polished finish. I tried to take a photo of it to upload, but it's not visible on photos taken with a smartphone, even in outdoor sun (maybe even more reason to let it be), and I don't have my SLR handy at the moment. Any information/opinions welcome. Thanks in advance.

    If you're so hurt by it, replace it i guess. Do not polish it IMO it ruins the bezel even more not to mention turns into a scratch magnet.

    They'd certainly replace it for you- but it won't be cheap. Having said that, if it annoys you every time you look at the watch, then you should replace it
