vlydog Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 I was wearing my WM9 sub today and a man standing next to me was wearing what I assumed was a genuine 16610. I noticed that the crystal height of his watch seemed higher than mine. Does anyone have a profile picture that would help solve this mystery?

By-Tor Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 WM9 crystal height is a bit higher than my gen 16710 GMT II. I don't know if Sub has higher crystal or not. I would think so. I think it's pretty much spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 WM9 crystal height is likely going to be just a touch shorter than gen; when I upgraded my WM9 to a gen 295C, I also switched to a H2 gasket as it was necessary to fit with the gen bezel assembly. There was a bit of a difference... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJo35 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Here's a couple pics of mine B. The first one shows my franken 16613 over my gen "A" series. You can see that the crystal is slightly higher on the A series watch than the franken. My franken has a gen bezel, gen insert, gen crystal. I'm still searching for a gen crystal retainer ring for it (if anyone can help, please PM me!). When RG was kind enough to build and service the watch for me, I sent up a new crystal gasket with the project, but I wasn't sure of the part number of the gasket I sent him, so it may not be the correct height. I'm still considering buying a new 295-2 gasket form the bay and installing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
