I'm thinking of buying a watchwinder for 4 watches. This BECO boxy carbon looks nice and has the capability of expanding it to more watches ( 12 max ). http://www.beco-lifestyle.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=96&category_id=26&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=2&lang=en Does anyone of the mebers of this forum has experience with these winders ???? Thanks in advance Cats

I've always been a fan op Pepsi bezels. Looks real nice think you will wear it a lot. Carp Diem Cats

Bingo , these are the ones you need Happy hunting. Carpe Diem Cats

Can't find the numbers right now so i have to digg into that. But you need a 6mm crown with a 5mm tube. Domi did the job for me. Kind regards. Cats

On the GMT II tranformer that i have form BK it did snap in but it wasn't flush with the top of the bezel. So i sanded down the insert and glued it in ( as i always do with gen inserts in rep bezels ) Could be that it clicks in perfectly on the other ( non transformer ) GMT from BK. My GMT is away for a relume , i'll post some pictures when it's back. I have to say that a gen crown is a huge improvement and also the insert will upgrade my GMT enormously Carpe Diem Cats

Just finished the insert with duck taped fingers and the result is super. The insert is as soft as the rep ones but it's still a scary business an a gen one. When my GMT II comes back home from a relume job i'll post some pics. Thanks for all the advise. Carpe Diem Cats

Great looking PAM you got there. I like the clearity of the crystal very much. Wear it well. Carpe Diem Cats

I thought i was addicted. I don't have a lot of reps but the investment per rep to give them a Franken status is very costly. That most be a lot of money involved in your addiction. Carpe Diem Cats

Yes by hand and max 600 grid. A Dremel takes of to much in one movement. It took me 45 minutes to get my insert on the GMT II flush Carpe Diem Cats

Yes i think that's the only solution. I just finished sanding down my gen 16710 insert and to be honest it's mentally a lot more difficult then sanding down a 30 dollar rep insert. Carpe Diem Cats

Thank you guys i did a few insert with a sanding paper with great results. This is one example of a rep insert i did ( coming up for sale for graps , a few people congratulated me for the nice looking gen insert) I don't know if the gen insert is made of a harder to grind metal as the reps are. I was just wondering of the approach with the bezel would be easier. I will give the sanding of the insert a try tonight. Just the fact that you are working on an insert which is 10 times more expensive as a rep is a little scary. Thanks for your advise Cats

I bought 2 gen Pepsi inserts for my BK GMT II transformer. The gen insert doesn't sit low enough in the bezel insert. Looking at the bezel and insert i have 2 options to get right ( just a little lower then the top of the bezel ) Option one : is to sand down the gen insert , but i never did this on a gen insert and a don't know if it is more difficult to do as one a rep insert. Option two : i could sand down the conical ridge in the bezel a little in order to get the insert in far enough so it sit's just a little lower then the top of the bezel. What option would you experts choose for ??. Thanks for the help in advance. Cats

you just did I don't understand exactly what you mean by i can't post pictures or something ?? Maybe you can be more specific. Carpe Diem Cats
