is this a rep tube or gen; for the gen one it will be better send it to The Zigmeister, he put a bushing in the case because the gen tube is smaller in diameter. He does a fantastic job. the rep one should not come off juts like that.
This the first time that someone posted something that makes sense, I keep hearing about epoxy sealing He valve; I have a 45 UPO and no epoxy there at all Guess what. I took the watch to 100 feet dive and good as new. if the watch is assembly correctly there should not be any problems. Also took the MBW 1665 and Steelfish and no leaking or fog in the crystal.
looking last night for a gen insert for my franken 1665 I ran into some crazy people listing inserts for over 300 dollars on ebay. where are we going, is not even worth to spend all that money a franken will always be a franken.
give me a break
well I changed the crystal but not happy with the results, take a look a t the pictures I ended up removing the AR; it was applied so lightly that I scratched when cleaning the inside of the crystal; now i need a new AR. By the way I pushed the pin key-less release too hard and now the crown will not engaged, need to remove dial and try put it back i place.
I have worked on watches before and I already disassembled the watch and the case stripped, I try to push the crystal out with my fingers. this is a 2007 DSN; I purchased the crystal from DSN is the updated version with better cyclops. so there is no crystal gasket?
What I am really wondering is the crown and the tube will it hold up and not gave up like all the 45UPO I end up installing a gen tube and crown on mine.
I am trying to install a new Crystal that I got for my 088 DSN, can someone tell me how to get the crystal of the case. Does this model suppose to have AR?
thanks
Do not mean to hick jack the thread, but I am about to go the same route, I just received a replacement crystal from DSN and update crystal for my 088 it sure looks thick to me so I am wondering the same how tall should really sit and all PAMs look the same.
