Wow seems like a good deal. Cheapest I can find anywhere else is in the $750 range, mostly $1500 though. Anybody have any experience with Wolf brand winders? I am still having a hard time thinking about shelling out $450. What do people think?
Well I took your advice, and sent him off an email. We will see what he says. I realyy did just try to solve it myself, but just couln't fin one big enough.
Well I got the 144 case gaskets off of Ebay. None of them are large enough. Does anyone know where I can get one large enough????????? Please point me in the right direction.
Oldecrow sent the follwing response:
"I can tell you the dimensions but I haven't ordered new gaskets yet to try myself so I can't say for sure if they will work.
the o-ring groove is 36.5mm outside and 35.5mm inside which means the gasket is 1mm wide and it should be at least .5mm thick for a flat gasket.
If you get a round o-ring for it you will have to get an assortment that covers that size range in different thicknesses and jus try them untill you find one that fits well."
I searched the internet, and couldn't find a flat gasket that large. I ended up orderinf the o-ring assortment off of ebay. I am hoping there will be something that fits.
I had previously seen that thread. It is what caused me to check my gasket. I pm'd Oldecrow, but haven't heard back yet. I have the 42.5mm Swiss ETA Version.
Thanks for the help
I just received my Planet ocean from Andrew, and let me say it is beautiful. Very Heavy and solid. One flaw is my caseback gasket is torn. I am inexperienced at watch repair, but am starting to learn. Does anyone know what size gasket I need? Should I just order an assortment from ebay? Such as:

Any help to a noob would be appreciated.
