nick1972 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milesd Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 (edited) 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!

woof* Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Welcome back, Yes once you use a press and get the retainer down, it will be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milesd Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Polex on other cases? Reps on reps. What is the world coming to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavidoc Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milesd Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I was going to dump this project but decided to keep going. Sent from my mobile phone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ww12345 Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
