In regards to replacing the bezel on a Rolex 16710 from a Coke insert to a Pepsi insert, what are the risks or differences for replacing the insert as compared to a gen? I understand with the GEN Subs and GMT-Masters it is a matter of prying off the bottle cap bezel and it simply pops off, I understand there is little quality control with rep timepieces so, has anyone ran into any differences with replacing their bezel inserts compared to a gen, or is the process pretty much standard to the design? Thanks.

So, I'm thinking about getting a PO as well. Everyone else got one, why not me? Right now I figure the best choices for my rather thin wrists would be the 42mm all black/white one: http://www.yourtrustytime.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=7063 or the black/white one with red numerals: http://www.yourtrustytime.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=7086 I figured I'd go with Andrew since I've ordered from him before and I've been more than happy with everything. As a matter of fact, I even found this forum through him. I researched rep watches by just using google and looking around, and finally I decided on Andrew and he had a link to this forum on his page. I will probably want to go franken with it sooner or later. As far as I gather from the earlier threads on this forum, this is the best out of the box model. Is it still the model to get if I'm going to change dial and hands? Bezel? As for now though, I'm thinking of keeping the rep bezel if it looks okay. How is the out of the box AR on this model? I like the one with red numerals slightly, slightly better. I was thinking of going with the all white/black rep since it's supposedly slightly more accurate, and then get the gen dial with red numerals. Thoughts? One problem though - all I could find at cousins UK was the all white/black one. http://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog/4/166/450.aspx So what should I look out for in the QC pictures? HE valve placement? Bezel pearl? Thanks guys!

I'm looking for a good bezel insert w/pearl for my 1665, and I'm wondering what's the best non-gen one I can get. Thanks!

I have an old MBW 1665 and I was wondering why the bezel was so loose. Well it turns out it doesn't have anything between the bezel and case. Anyone know where to get one? -
Does anyone have any idea about this? It looks like the 0/200 issue has been fixed on this one. http://www.timesshop...0-28800bph.html Are there any flaws you can see?
