Note:

Some meters have a thin formed metal cover-like thing that goes over the 
meter itself.  I would call that the bezel.

   Most meters have a cast and machined front plate into which the meter 
case is held with either screws or a fastening ring.  You  could also call 
that the bezel, since it surrounds the meter glass and face.

"Oh where have all the meters gone,
Long time passing

Where have all the meters gone
Long long time ago..."
