jackagi Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I need some advice from the Rolex pros on this board! TC is building me a Rolex submariner and as the insert of TC is far from perfect I am trying to source a gen insert for it! I already got an offer for a brand new one, but wanted to know what's the current price for gen inserts! Does anybody has some insight? Any help would be highly appreciated!

Justasgood Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 85.00 - 125.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danza1812 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 There's no set price as they can be sold for as much as the buyer is willing to pay. It's not like they can be ordered from a supplier. Shop around there's bargains to be had. Just as a taster for you, here's my TC with gen crystal and insert.

jackagi Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I got one offer from a member of the rolexforum and he offered me a brand new insert for about 250usd! I guess that's just too much! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiderdaus Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 depends, sometimes you pay for a 16800 less than 100 or for a 16610 more than 250 when it is rfid sealed. the latest i bought was rfid sealed and i payed 250euro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_rymeister Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I bought one last week new from a member for £140 delivered to uk. Last one I bought from the Rolex forum for £95 2nd hand delivered. There was one ended tonight on eBay for £50 2nd hand but it was a flat 4 . Best bet is sign up on therolex forum Ananda take a look in sale section. http://www.rolexforums.com/index.php http://www.rolexforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=37 Hope this helps guys I spent last 2 weeks trying to get one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woof* Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 My luckiest catch was a 16610 insert like new for 55$ shipped. The guy only had 20 feedbacks and was in Greece, but I took the plunge. When it arrived he had included a couple Rolex hang tags and anchor in the deal free I admit that was crazy lucky but deals are out there.

ArkoN Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 The Pearl looks very gen how much do you pay for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavidoc Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Looks real. Price can vary. A brand new one from an AD or independent with a parts account should run around $100 US just like Justasgood stated. Used ones are all over the place with those in good condition with tritium pearl and flat four typically getting the higher amounts. Don't pay more then $200 for one of these. If you do you are being ripped off. We aren't talking plastic sub inserts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackagi Posted March 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) Regarding the price of the insert:The seller wants 200 British pounds and that is way too much for a brand new gen insert!If you need one PM me I have a few used and brand new. Pm sent ;-) Edited March 14, 2012 by jackagi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
