JEKS Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 OK, yes, BK LV sub with WM9 hand and dial. Gen crystal, crown and insert. I am in love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 the tells for me: crown position, cgs crown profile shape, and that rehaut engraving. is it really that hard for the factory to pull these pieces before they get put through the engraving machine?

JEKS Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Higho, What would you suggest for fixes, if possible on this piece. Crown position seems something I'll have to live with, lest I have it filled and redrilled. If so, what are you thinking, maybe 0.5mm higher (closer to the crystal plane)?Crowns can be altered a bit with grinding, etc... suggestions? Here is a gen LV for reference. Are you suggesting removing the rehaut engraving? I Googled a bit and found only LVs with the engraving. Did they make some without? Or, are you suggesting something else?I'm asking because I may go further with this. I've got a used gen bezel and I'm considering adding a 3135 at some point if I can find one for under $1500. Thanks, JEKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
