Removing Bezel and Crystal on my Rolex...

I have a submariner with small diamonds for the numbers. One of my diamonds came loose and is rolling around the face sometimes getting caught in the hands. If I remove the bezel, will the crystal come off so I can get this little bugger? What could I use to secure the diamond back in its place? Is this crazy for me to even attempt and should I just bring it to a jeweler?

Is it against the rules to ask a question? Since I would not be messing with the mechanism I thought maybe I could just remove the crystal. Thanks for your help...

first off, i'd take it to a jewler. how old is the watch? is it still under warrany? if not, is it scheduled for service? i bet that rolex would take care of the stone for you as part of the maintenance.

Watch is about eight years old so no warranty. It is in need of a service so I will be sending it in to Rolex. I was just looking for a possible quick solution.
