What is everyone using for sticky tape to hold the bezel/crystal on that will ensure the pebble is still waterproof?

Attempted this using RTV Silicon, and it is %#*@ difficult to not get it EVERYWHERE! I got some on my LCD, now I’m looking for another Pebble. Just use a little superglue on the outside and don’t figure on it being waterproof anymore - I guess.

There’s a lot of replacement battery on internet. Just search “150mAh P11G7T-01-S01”.
