SilverG Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Is there anything I can do to make my SS DJ heavier? It seems so light compared to my gen... Is there like a plate or a disc that I can put on top of the movement in the case to add a few grams?
SilverG Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Posted July 30, 2009 A Stilty ring? Will that add any weight?
SilverG Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 Bump - still looking for a solution.. Anybody?
alligoat Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 You could switch from a jubilee band to an oyster band w/ solid mid links.
SilverG Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 You could switch from a jubilee band to an oyster band w/ solid mid links. I'm already on an oyster with solid midlinks
lanikai Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 If all else fails.. go to the gold shop and buy metal tape strips and attach it to the inside of the case back.. it should be thin enough not to hinder the movement, it's what's use to change the balance of the club heads.. one or two thin strips should do it..

pilot Posted December 17, 2009 Report Posted December 17, 2009 Gold shop or Golf shop Lani? I've a feeling one may be a bit more expensive than the other!
cyborg Posted December 17, 2009 Report Posted December 17, 2009 Try some lead tape and stick it on the inside of the caseback. You can buy it at most golf stores.
SilverG Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Posted December 17, 2009 Thanks guys ... I live in NYC Manhattan.. anywhere nearby I can pick some up?
cyborg Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 Thanks guys ... I live in NYC Manhattan.. anywhere nearby I can pick some up? I think theres a golfsmith near lex and 53rd... And there's another golf shop on 35 between 6 and 7th. Good luck!

Golf... finger fart there... it is in fact the lead tape that cyborg mentions, that I suggested as an alternative to the bracelet.. it comes in strips and can be cut smaller.. should do the trick.. it's weight is substantial..

Thanks for the idea Lani - I'll let you know how it works out
SilverG Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Posted December 23, 2009 Hey guys, Bought the lead tape today. There were 2 variations - one was a roll of lead tape, and the other was 10 square lead pieces that I can cut up. I'll try a few tonight inside one of my reps and let you know how it comes out. PS - do you think its better to tape to the inside of the caseback, or on the back of the rotor?
hank7502 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Posted December 24, 2009 Caseback. The rotor needs to be free to move.
Raijor Posted December 24, 2009 Report Posted December 24, 2009 Yes to the caseback ... no to rotor. Let us know how it works out.
preacher62 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Posted December 24, 2009 You could go to Baily, Banks & Biddle and they could fix you up with a DJ that would be just right.
SilverG Posted December 24, 2009 Author Report Posted December 24, 2009 You could go to Baily, Banks & Biddle and they could fix you up with a DJ that would be just right. Who is that? Where is that? And what do they do?
kbh Posted December 24, 2009 Report Posted December 24, 2009 Jeweler and Rolex authorized distributor. Currently in Bankruptcy though I think.
brucesreps Posted December 25, 2009 Report Posted December 25, 2009 Jeweler and Rolex authorized distributor. Currently in Bankruptcy though I think. Man SG if only you lived in my area. There are auctions here once a month.... I've been to 3 this year and have seen 100's of Rolex watches go for less than $1,000 and most of them new. Alot of them were presidents too. They are GUARANTEED authentic and come with all paperework/boxes/accessories they originally came with. Cool deal I think. It's my secret spot but would take ya with me.
brucesreps Posted December 25, 2009 Report Posted December 25, 2009 Bout al they've had were Rolex, Movado and RW. No Panerai or anything else really. They had 1 Breitling Colt at one time but I believe it went for right at $1,200
fakemaster Posted December 25, 2009 Report Posted December 25, 2009 Lead tape? That would make what a 1'2 gram difference as little as he could fit in there.
RolexSigEp Posted December 29, 2009 Report Posted December 29, 2009 Any results? I thought about doing this also
Samurai Posted December 29, 2009 Report Posted December 29, 2009 Lead tape? That would make what a 1'2 gram difference as little as he could fit in there. Any other ideas then?
