vlydog Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Can a gen tube be extracted from an existing case and then installed in another case? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Sure, but is it worth it? Why not just get a new case tube? You may need to heat the case to loosen the glue, if it was glued in there (I'm not sure what Rolex's procedure is, but Loc-tite works well for me). Clean the threads on the old tube, retap the case, a bit of loc-tite and away you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent2 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 easy to do with a reamer to grip the inside of the tube. there are special tools for this of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
