Did you solder the bezel and the midcase from inside?

Im using a solder paste.it is extra for va steel soldering wtih other materials like brass.Im using the solder wire from the same brand for it. the stem tube I solder from the outside and the bezel from the inside.
the paste is very good for soldering, because it already includes solder wire and when you heat the case you see the solder paste comes silver shining and you just hold the solder wire to the soldering part. the solder paste take the melded wire inside the soldering part,so it runs everywhere.
it makes the soldering very easy
