Rolexaddict Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 CGs on these MBWs need work on the inside and outside. Cheers Frank sounds like now these cases are better in term of specs accuracy this case concerned don'tt accept a gen dial or a gen specs rep dial without a dial cut or case machining, for crown guards recut, I prefer to keep a light hand : Visually, it could be ruined very fast. Removing metal its easy, adding is more a problem. I have seen a gen 1675 initially supposed to have regular CG, so overpolished that CG were looking like a pointed CG Sub 5512... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 For the dial lume, is there a reason why is the lume not smooth? Like most things relating to vintage Rolex, there are no hard-&-fast rules, but, in general, the lume usually has some texture to it. Sometimes, vintage Rolex lume appears puffy & sometimes it appears flat, but, rarely is it smooth - it often looks like it was applied (or gone over) with a nappy paint roller For the lugs holes, every gen I have in the shop has flat edges, no chamfer I agree with you on the flat lug holes. If the lug holes are chamfered (& many are), they got that way after the case left the (Rolex) factory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
