Hi guys, I bought a very nice 5517 from a fellow member, and that somehow transported me to the rolex world... and im falling in love im affraid. I decided that this watch diserves something special..so.. im gonna try to upgrade it slowly .. that takes me to a couple of questions: What mods would you advise me to do in such a watch? 1- I need a new bezel insert for this model.. is there any good aftermarket one?.. any special advices/technics to age it properly after buying it? 2- I think the original watch uses a triplock 8mm crown.... is this correct?.. 3 - what is the correct tropic for this particular model?..the T39?

Thanks guys!

Why...just why...a bigO pilot 5004 stainless steel is 4 times more expensive than a Mark XV?..... my only answer is: 7 days power reservs cost 6000 usd...... oh come on!!!..... thats 857.14 usd a day for a laisy ass winder syndrome.... why?!?!?!??!.................. anyway...just wondering Thanks A.
