messenius Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Does that mean that you can use gen hands with the wheels pictured? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbh Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 From Yuki's Site: This adaptor set to retro-fit an ETA 2824-2 / 2784 movement to fit into a genuine Rolex cases using cal.1570. Include this ONLY: Submariner 5513, Submariner 5512, Submariner 1680, Sea-Dweller 1665. This set come with: >movement holder, >hour extension wheel & >mintues extension wheel. The holder fit the movement perfectly in the Rolex case. After using our unique adaptor set, just easy to modify a ETA 2824-2 / 2784 movement to fit into a Submariner 5513, Submariner 5512, Submariner 1680, Sea-Dweller 1665 gen case. SURE FOR YUKI'S CASE!!!! (Submariner 5513, Submariner 5512, Submariner 1680, Sea-Dweller 1665.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertieng Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Nice. Why the extension wheels are needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Not sure, but if the pinions are taller, a longer 4th wheel for the seconds hand would be needed to go along with it. P.S. looking at the pic, those pinions look fairly standard in height... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messenius Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Nice. Why the extension wheels are needed? My guess is that with these wheels you can use Yuki's (or gen) hands that are sized for cal. 1570 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Ehhh... I'd still take stilty's adaptors any day of the week over these. Not only is stilty a pleasure to work with, but more to the point, he has performed extensive testing of his rings to ensure that they are compatible for the movement/case retrofit specific to the application. Plus, he stands behind his product 100%... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cskent69 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I am still hoping that one day Yuki will sell the 1665 white caseback (with the Rolex around the caseback versus the one they have which is made for the double red. Anyone know where to get that 1665 whiteletter caseback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cskent69 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Also - not to harp on Yuki - but look at these lug holes - is one of these slightly in the wrong place? Has anyone recieved one of these cases - what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
