  1. Hello guys, Suddenly the crown on my rolex submariner replica won't screw in, it gets tight when im screwing it in, but not enough to hold it in place, and as a result it will just spin forever. I've done some research and it looks like the tube is stripped, or at least that's what I think. I'd like some guidance in order to fix it / replace it. I'm a complete beginner when it comes to repairing or modifying a watch, so I have no clue what tools do I need, what replacement parts will fit my watch, and where to get them. If there's anyone who has done something similar on their watch, please help me! Thanks in advance
  2. So, I've started to collect the parts for my 1655 "Freccione", so far I have: Gen Service Dial, Gen Service Hands, Gen MK IV bezel, Gen 1575 GMT movement. Gen old style NOS Tropic 116 Still on the shopping list: Phong's 1655 Mid case + case back Gen 6mm winding crown + tube Gen Bracelet, either 78360, 62510H, 93510 (I'm still deciding although I'm leaning toward the "D link" jubilee) I need to know which 6mm winding crown should I buy. I know that the1655 uses a men's Datejust 6mm crown as opposed to the 1675 5.3mm crown. Has anyone got the correct Rolex part number for the crown + tube? thank you Max
  3. Hi friends, It's been awhile since i've dealt with sourcing parts or trying to mod anything. I'm now feeling like buying a sub or a gmt master rep and mod it with some gen parts. (Used to have a secs@9 daytona two years ago, which I've wanted to mod - already had the gen crown, tube and pushers, eventually ended up selling all of the parts and the watch due to the lack of time) What's the correct tap to use for a gen tube fit for a modern submariner \ gmt-master ? (they both have the same tube if i'm not mistaken ? and I haven't decided yet about which one i'm gonna get and mod) and I'd be glad to know if any member of rwg is selling them, I'd better buy from him than someone else Many thanks! db
  4. Gentlemen and ladies, I recently picked up an old school MBK 1680 from another member. It was advertised as having a gen crown. The tube (clearly not a gen tube) is worn out so I ordered and have received a 703 tube. After further examination of the crown I found that it looks like (from the outside) the gen 703 crown on my 16610 but it does not have the skirt on the inside that slips down on the large o-ring on the case tube. What crown might this be...if it is gen. Additionally, it will not screw down on the new 703 tube. This is a red flag to me. Would another Rolex 7mm crown have different threads to screw down on the tube? I thought that had not changed. (Me thinks it might be the original MBK crown.) One sure fix for my problem is to order a gen 703 crown to go with the new 703 tube. Is this a real bad gig (on a 1680) or have 702 crowns and tubes been replaced with 703s. Many of the 1680s on eBay look like they have 703 setups. Thanks a million! M
  5. Alright, im in the process of installing a gen tube into a cartel 5512 case. How hard is it to redrill and retap correctly? What drill size and tap size is used for the 7030? Is there anyone in EU who could do this installation if i send my parts to the person? Regards
  6. I noticed that my 42mm PO's tube is threaded on the outside, while pretty much all the pictures I've found of the tube switch process looks to be threaded on the inside (like the gen tube I got from cousins). My tube looks thicker and threaded on the outside - does it make a difference? Will it be harder to remove or will it leave a larger hole in the case? Is it a 42mm thing? I haven't seen anything about it really... t This is my case and my stem, in the picture above. That's Rymeister's stem before he removed it on his 45mm PO.
  7. What is the NEXT best tube for a rolex 1680/16610 sub? Is it the Yuki or Clarks or anyother one???
