Is My Journey Over? Birth Year Grail Piece Finally Acquired
jerkstore replied to droptopman's topic in The Rolex Area
Hilarious. Beautiful watch, btw. Who doesn't love gilt? Congrats. -
Guys!! Need you qualified help on authentication DJ!
jerkstore replied to Blindpirat's topic in The Rolex Area
OP, you won a bunch of fake parts. Sorry. -
ST sells good aftermarket spring bars. And you can find others on eBay. Best of luck with your build!

Somebody selling (sold?) a TC midcase as gen: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=181763159101
-
Report away. The guy knows it's a fake, and pretends to be ignorant.

That IS a genuine 5513/1680/1665 insert. Just google "5513 midfont". May not be period correct for a PCG, but it could have easily been a service replacement. It would not fit on a sapphire watch.

Midcase that goes along with it... http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=281574699907
-
Thanks. That was my suspicion given the thickness of some fonts on the outside and how clean the inside is.
-
Gen or rep? Thanks!
-
Looks great, W! Nice job assembling those parts. Now the wait begins...

Removing a datewheel with a DWO? Any tricks or pointers?
jerkstore replied to DVNE's topic in The Rolex Area
Agreed with all except that you can reach the spring on an ETA 2836-2 and similar, since it sits up so high. See my tutorial: http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/159437-removing-an-overlayed-date-wheel-without-a-screwdriver/ -
See it here: http://bit.ly/1dV7wAF Gen or not? What does it end up selling for?
-
Just like Tomhorn says, it's an easy swap. Just slide a razor blade under the existing bezel to loosen it, pop it off with a case knife, an press down the new bezel. I might take you give minutes. Maybe check with the seller on which models this fits; http://bit.ly/1mTSq4s Good luck.

Great story! Very glad to hear everything is in order and that the membership is about to increase by 1

Between those two, I would go for the MF. Maybe ask about the brown spotting (rust?) on the case neck. Look between the rehaut and the insert between 10 and 20. Does it affect other parts of the midcase or bezel assembly?
