SKX013 The Big Bang Bezel - Silver

The Big Bang Bezel. Brushed-Top Steel. For the SKX013.

A bold, screw-accented statement bezel — oversized presence on a modest SKX013, made for the Seiko SKX013. Machined from 316L stainless steel, brushed on top with a mirror-polished rim and mirror-polished screws.

A friction-fit, non-rotating bezel — it press-fits on and sits about 0.5mm above the OEM crystal, which also helps protect the crystal from knocks. Fits the Seiko SKX013, SKX015, SKX017 and all 7S26-0030 cases.

The cheapest way to change the whole watch.
No dial, no movement, no fuss — swap the bezel and the silhouette shifts.

A bold statement.
An oversized, screw-accented ring that turns a modest SKX013 into a real head-turner.

Friction-fit, non-rotating.
Press-fits on and sits ~0.5mm above the OEM crystal to protect it — a fixed, decorative ring.

Fits the SKX013.
Sized for the Seiko SKX013, SKX015, SKX017 and all 7S26-0030 cases.

Questions, Answered

Everything worth knowing before you build.

Will an SKX007 bezel fit an SKX013?

No. The cases are different diameters, so the bezels aren't interchangeable. SKX013 bezels fit the 7S26-0030 case family (SKX013, SKX015, SKX017). SKX007 bezels fit the 7S26-0020 family (SKX007, SKX009, SKX011) plus Seiko 5 SRPD and SRPE (4R36-07G0) cases.

Do these bezels rotate?

It depends on the fit type, shown on each product page. Snap-based dive bezels — like the Submariner, MM300 and 24H GMT — seat on the case and rotate. Friction-based bezels — like the Pilot, Fluted, Big Bang and Tachymeter — are marked 'Nonrotatable': they press on fixed, as a decorative ring. If you want a working rotating bezel, choose a snap-based dive style.

What's the difference between a snap-fit and a friction-fit bezel?

Snap-fit bezels click onto a retaining groove on the case and take a bezel insert — these are the rotating dive styles, and they include a gasket. Friction-fit bezels press on and sit about 0.5mm above the OEM crystal (which also helps protect it) — these are the fixed dress styles, and they don't take an insert. Both are removable, and both seat with a crystal press.

Is a gasket included?

Yes. The snap-fit dive bezels ship with a rubber gasket, included and installed. The SNK bezels come with two i-ring gaskets. You just supply a crystal press to seat the bezel straight and even.

Do I need special tools to install a bezel?

All our bezels snap on. You'll need a crystal press to install one — it seats the bezel straight and evenly.

What are these bezels made of?

316L stainless steel, machined by ISO 9001 certified manufacturers. Finishes span mirror polished, brushed, gold and DLC black coating depending on the model.

Customers praised this aftermarket watch bezel for its "outstanding build quality" and premium finishing that "makes a dial pop." Most noted it's "beautiful" and "well made," though one customer mentioned minor alignment issues with the dots. Shipping was generally fast with excellent customer service.

  • Best aftermarket bezel regarding finishing - looks like a premium luxury high-end watch bezel
  • Outstanding build quality, really makes a dial pop. Great quality and fast shipping!
  • Perfectly executed, combining sport spirit with sophisticated style. Love it!

Absolutely beautiful

I have to say, this is by all mean the best aftermarket bezel I got so far regarding the finishing of it. Photos cannot really justify the beauty of it, especially regarding light reflection. It looks like a bezel finishing you would find on a much more premium luxury high-end watches. Love it so much that I get a spare one in case mine got scratches and I got one to replace with in the future :)

hmmm.... the accurate word would be... GREAT!

First time I MOD a watch. No previous knowledge before throwing my self in this adventure. Well, besides some patience it's easy to do. I followed each step of the "Lucius Atelier" Tuto, and no worries.
About the bezel, it is said it will sit 0.5mm above the stock crystal, wich I didn't read when I purchased it; Adriel answered back in a couple of hours by mail, great customer service.
To fit it in, I had to use a vice bench, slowly, in the end you can hear a little sound that says "I'm in place mate, that's fine now".
Because of the vice bench, I didn't see the bezel twisting slightly left, which explains the screw doesn't align with the date, I don't have the proper tool yet.
The finish besides this, is marvelous. Beautiful product, great service.... as would say George "what else?"

The 6 dots in the bezel are not super aligned but the Rest is very nice. The shipment took almost double the time but that could be related to corona.
Still definit recommendation!

Do you need bezel gasket and click spring to install this bezel? Does the bezel turn like other diver bezels?

Nope. Installation is vanilla. No gasket, no bezel click spring.

As stated in the specs, this bezel does not rotate.

Thank you for expressing your interest in our mod parts.

No, this is specific for SKX013 model and 7S26-0030 watch cases. These are basically the smaller 38mm watch cases. Not for the big brother SKX007 / 7S26-0020 watch cases.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
