backside?

got it - will ask

oh, forgot - Daytona racing dial € 1.120

only costs that I got were for the 93150 and 78390 bracelet and the 16613 insert:

93150: € 820

78390: € 1.030

16613 insert: € 110

I have no clue why the 78390 bracelet is more expensive. Do we have a pricelist to compare the prices?

Best, J

A proper caseback for my 16600 !

on the list

Parts for the 4digit RLXs hard to get as freddy said. Dealer can only try to get them at watch exhibitions...we could do this by ourselfs, too...

He has the following parts in stock at the moment:

SS Bracelet 93150

SS Bracelet 78390

Endlinks 580

16613 insert in blue (3 pieces)

116619 blue ceramic insert (1 piece)

116619 blue dial (1 piece)

16613 insert in black

116509 Daytona Racing Dial (3 pieces)

Also ordered a 16520 bezel today, waiting for pricing and delivery time

In this condition, I think it's overpriced. You can find them on the bay, and sometimes there is a nice one on www.chrono24.com

Best, J

disappointed...

Hi T,

Thanks, will add this to my list,

Best, J

Bought it 11/2 years ago, but gets no wristtime because it's to bling for me. Maybe I will list it for sale within the next weeks...

But a very nice watch at all ! If Ou like the 41mm cases, go for it.

I would sas they are very accurate, depending on the model you choose. I have heard that tue color ofthe blue dial is not so accurate, and some numeral (especially the "10") look like if they are crooked.

Due to these facts I went for the white dial with sticks, Swiss ETA version:

Master Yoda, the code of the glass you need for your rep?

Awsome !!!

check out timeband's 8 posts (steps 1- on how to make a strap on hf & wc

everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask....

Thanks - I'm a long time around here, but blnever heard about hf & wc... Is it wristcheck.com?

Gen 16610 bezel retaining rings is a huge one. I never see them for sale! I got extremely lucky and got one cheap off the bay from a highly rated seller

what's cheap in you opinion?

For all 6 Buckles that's a real good price!

Paid €15 for each!

Funny - doing currently the same project. collected some buckles, and waiting for their arrival.

what did the buckles and the leather cost you?

Best, J

ok - thanks for your input. you´re right, I should have been a little more precise.

what I meant is something like that:

1. e.g. Rolex Daytona 16520 bezel - xyz $/€...
   
2. Sub Bracelet SS 93150 - xyz $/€...
   
3. Dial 5513....
   

So at the end of the day there will be a list of parts (hopefully with prices) - the most desired/required parts win the lottery. As I said before - I can not promise anything, I just can ask if they are sourceable, and for what price.

A quick note - I am doing this just for the community. I will never act like a dealer, nor will I have a cent of profit on anything sourced. To collect parts for my own projects took a long time, and for some of them I had to pay a lot more than necessary (compared to what I paid today). I have also heard rumors, that RLX policies regarding the supply of parts will be more tightened in the future. Especially for small dealers that are no RLX service centers...but as said - just rumors, can´t clarify

it took about 20 seconds to receive the first reply...cool

All,

may I ask the question, what are the most interesting Rolex parts, or which ones are really hard to get? Inserts, Dials, cases?

The reason why I ask is that I probably - and I say PROBABLY - have a possibility to source some parts.

Please do not ask me at this moment if I can source parts for you - not at the moment. Since it was really hard to obtain the dealers confidence (took almost 2 years), I will not ask him twice a week if he can source me any parts. Maybe it is possible to purchase a small amount of the most desired parts in the future if the relationship to the dealer stays stable.

I was able to purchase some crowns and inserts for my projects today, as well as a gen ceramic insert for the blue 116619 for a friend who is currently building a gen shark.

Are you willing to list the parts here, as well as the usual market prices if you know them? So I can ask and compare if it would make sense to purchase from him in the future or not.

Best, J

how is the date from 10-31? alligned?

I like the idea with the clamps!

Nice vintage tools!

yeah - they were from my grandpa - received them from my father today, and there were all necessary tools like needles, groover and so on...

got some red scotch-grain leather, green alligator, black/brow python and other other nice stuff..

waiting for bad weather to start something

Thanks all for your input. Saw the watch in flesh today - seller claims it has 21 jewels..

..I said that two stones are enough - one below, one above..

It was not worth the €170. Offered me than a 386, but it was v1, and for €300 I thought it was too expensive
