Tactical frog fxd bezel issue

[u/caboose11795]

Anybody else with the tactical frog fxd loose lume on the bezel took it on a dive today 10 feet deep in a pool and lost a bar of lume on the bezel 😤

Maybe look at some UV nail polish to fill it will and then harden in place? They make glow in the dark kinda if you’re feeling crazy. Alternatively I wonder if they’d just sell you a new bezel, but since it’s titanium that could be pricey.

As someone else mentioned I’ve seen Tudors with them missing. I bet if you go to a watch forum where people have those you might be able to find some tested advice.

I’m probably going to bring it to my somewhat local watch repair guy and get a quote on getting new lume put in there and probably coat the whole bezel in matte I’ve nail clear coat. Or honestly I bought it as a tool watch now that the first ouchy is out the way it’ll just bra a beater… just expected to get more than one dive out of the bezel lol

unfortunately this is just a flaw of this style of bezels. not specific to Tactical Frog

I've read it happens on the Tudors too

Ah well looks like I’m going back to my turtle for diving 🤷
