Help with Gen Parts with Josh 5513

[nick1972]

Anyone know if the Yuki 9401 caseback will fit the josh case, and if so, is it any good?

No they won't fit, I used gen and rep tudor casebacks on the josh 5512. A tudor sub caseback won't fit on gen submariners eighter I think.

Is there a new improved cartel case with larger crownguards on the market? I want

Edit// No there is only one cheap Josh submariner with polex engraving, I bought different watches a long time, all polex engraved..............I see no diffenrence

Back from my trip. The NOS stock plexi fits better, but not as tight as the rep. However as long as it's tight, I think the retaining ring will fit nicely to hold the plexi in place.

Also, my Yuki case back and InGod dial arrived. I've tested the case back fit and it's perfect!

Welcome back,

Yes once you use a press and get the retainer down, it will be good to go.

can't wait to see the results!

All the parts are ready to go (minus hands), but I need to find a modder to assemble this puppy:

And here is the Yuki case back:

I feel a bit dumb as I have all these gen parts and the dial is still rep. I guess I'll just get it together as is and attempt to find a gen dial for it at some point.

Polex on other cases? Reps on reps. What is the world coming to?

Were you able to get the gen bezel to work with the rep retaining ring? I wasn't able to on my Tudor build a few years ago and ended up getting a gen retaining ring/bezel combo instead.

I'm sending it off to have a new one made.

Nice dial

Look forward to seeing this one!

Josh case is gone. MBW incoming!

"Josh case is gone. MBW incoming!"

This has been a long one!

Hurry up and build this watch!

I was going to dump this project but decided to keep going.

Trust me, you won't be disappointed. I made the same move of dumping the Josh case for the MBW and haven't looked back since. It is a far superior case.
