    The differences I find are not related to the logo...

    Can anyone help identify the current bezel I have on the watch? Installed in the 70s , looks like a Turnograph? But , the no “30” at the 6 o’clock position I haven’t seen.


    Youre right about the 30 missing... Ask on VintageRolexForum...

    Also.. what are the first 2 numbers in the serial?

     

    Also.. that’s 40k USD at least currently with the Rolex bubble... so I would try to sell it ASAP to a Hong Kong-trustfund-kid and buy gold...

     

    For comfort... That’s what I did with my 4 pcs of 5517 bezel inserts...

    And you can find really good rivet bracelets at rubyswatch.com

    All you need is metal sand sandpaper in 200, 600, 1200. A dremel with coarse + fine jewelers paste. Last but not least masking tape, preferably Kapton,

     

    All rough edges need to be made smooth.

    Then I would refinish the case with laser welding, lapping (case, bezel preferably replated, new chamfers). Also refinish the acrylic crystal. There are different guys but the best results I've seen are some Japanese guys of which their name I've forgotten (but you can find em on Insta).

     

    The best part is that you can pay for all of this by selling the Turn-o-graph-insert on Vintage Rolex Market.

     

    P.S. Shoot a picture of the crown and caseback..

    Also that fat font bezel insert seems to be in good condition and it's rarity might fetch you a sweet sum... However I'm not versed in its market value since they've never interested me...

     

     

     

    You just paid waaaaaaay to much for a crappy insert..

    Take it easy mate, wait for more input before jumping

    That sounds like a marvellous idea. Everyone should do that! Post the least popular threads in the most visited subforum.
