Veglia Gauge Bezels

[canuck750]

BSANUT on Ebay sells the chrome and black bezel kits, I have installed many of them, good quality.

My method is to clamp the instrument into a jig I made up, I prey the bezel off very delicately working around the gauge with a very small flat glade screwdriver



Pry off the old bezel, remove the glass, clean the instrument face and then install the new glass, rubber rings and bezel.




Clamp it all back into the jig, make sure the gauges is clamped down very firmly.

I use a brass punch to tap the bezel around the gauge progressively flattening the ring





For my Laverda gauges I made a holder from aluminum and used a tool in my lathe to spin the ring back on



The tool is just an old wheel bearing in a piece of steel bar, the face of the bearing is pressed up against the spinning instrument and the cross slide turned in to press the ring over.

Can't find these currently for sale - are they NLA?  Dirty inside the crystal...

Is there someone who does this as a service - send the whole instruments for a cleanup and such?

Here is another choice for gauge repair I have used a few times for both British & Veglia ,,,, Andrew Taylor of SMITHSWERK in Carson, Iowa. He presently will be repairing my LeMans gauge I sent him . He also converted KPH to MPH for me on my Nuovo Falcone and a 1950's Norton single. Very happy with his work.

I have also used Joel Levine in the past.
