  1. To press links together on a watch bracelet
  2. dont be to rough, most of the time the crown will not pop out like it should. When you unscrew it, try turning it clockwise and you may feel the spring pop it out, that will be the wind poisition, all the way out is the time set, as you know. Sometimes the spring in the crown won't pop the crown out to make it work properly. You should never be rough with it, just work with it and patient . good luck
  3. gone from ebay, the ebay police are on the job
  4. If you seldom wear it, gold, if you wear it a lot, 2 tone
  5. Have you removed the bezel, if so it should pop out, unless it's glued. If you are trying to remove it without removing the bezel, take the pear out, and gently start lifting the insert at the hole, most likely you will ruin it, but my guess is your replacing it anyway. GL
  6. Thanks. Do you have any contact info for these guys
  7. I have everythng you need. PM if you're interested
  8. I have the same watch, wear it every day, love it. No leaks, keeps great time. At times I forget its not real
  9. I believe my bezel, insert, and retainer to be genuine, but who really knows
  10. Very nice. I love the fact that the cycops on a gen has perfect alignment
  11. Like the title says, is there anyone in usa that can super lume hands. Thanks in advance
  12. Nevermind, I just cked my crystal, It's not the correct one. However I have a supplier here in Dallas, I can ck monday and see if he has it. I'll let you know
  13. Can you give me the measurement inside and outside so I can ck my crystal. I am not sure if its what you are looking, but I think it is.
  14. I have a set of gen hands, 16800 I believe. Do you relume hands yourself?
  15. Are the teeth good on your bezel all the way around. Have you tried bending the spring spacer a tad, that should increase the resistence against the clicker spring. Good luck
  16. For sure insert, dial if its in the budget, and a crystal will really help.
  17. I have one with cyclops, and one without
  18. yes, way off. I have the exact same dial with the 6 off, but not as bad as yours. The markers have feet on them, and when the holes are drilled off, that is what you wind up with. You must remove the marker, and either drill a new hole, or grind the lower foot off of the marker, and glue it to the dial. Not a big job, but needless in my opinion. A little QC would prevent this from happening.
  19. I just looked, I do have one I think that will fit your watch.
  20. That is correct. But untill 4 months ago we ordered swiss. Then they started showing up with asian 2836 instead of swiss, even though we ordered swiss.
  21. Around 3 or 4 months ago, we started getting watches with asian 2836-2 movements. At first they seemed like a good cheaper alternative to the swiss 2836-2. All of a sudden, around four months later, we are starting to get returns for service or replacement. THIS IS NOT GOOD. I have several swiss eta 2836-2 in watches I built in 1995, IM NOT KIDDING, they have never been touched to this day. I realize the asian eta looks nearly the same as a swiss, at half the price, but early results indicate, 'YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR' SWISS 2836-2 IS CHEAP AT TWICE THE PRICE. Just a note on the asian 2836 rotor, it says TWENY FIVE JEWELS not TWENTY. LOL
  22. I have one taken off my gen tudor sub in 1990 when I converted it to sapphire. Excellent condition. $50.00 NEVERMIND,MINE HAS NO CYCLOPS
