  1. Rolex MilSub ref.5517 Project: BUILD

    in The Rolex Area

    Posted

    If we buy a complete Ruby case, what is the need for an Athaya 702 crown?  What version of the crown comes on Ruby case and what are the advantages disadvantages?  I know the Athaya 702 looks incredible but the clutch springs in crowns are weak.  Plus, if the Ruby crown is 703 or 704, it will be more water proof than the Athaya 702.  I'm about to order a Ruby case so I really would like to please know.  

    Naturally you could just stick with Ruby’s crown and tube. You’d have to ask her the exact spec. Correct for a 5517 would be a 702. The only budget alternative to a gen is Athaya’s 702. I’ve used them in several builds. Maybe I got lucky, I’ve had no problems with them. For the right 5517-look, 702 is the way to go.
