Are all bezel inserts held on with sticky tape?
Any Seiko mods where the bezel inserts is changed use double sided sticky tape.
Is the same method used from factory to hold bezel inserts in place?
Do all other brands use double sided tape?
It feels like a cheap and insubstantial method of holding on the insert for something that's a relatively expensive tool.
What about Seiko dive watches that are over 1k, or other brands?

Factory inserts on some current Seikos use sticky tape.
I’ve modded some myself, most recently a turtle which I had bought new, and am sure it was taped in - used a Stanley blade to slice my way in carefully and separate, once the whole bezel was off.
Same on some SKX versions I played with years ago.
