chronochef Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 As a relative noob, besides the pricing, what are going to be the differences between the big crown sub case from Silix-Prime and the big crown sub case from Yuki? Will the yuki parts/dial fit on and into the silix case? Thanks to all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Not likely. The Yuki case is designed to fit a Rolex movement & accept gen parts, while the Silix case (like most replica Rolex watches) is designed to fit a non-Rolex movement & may or may not fit some gen parts.

jerkulot Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Silix prime case is based on the 40mm china made sub reps, crown tube size is thinner (I think it shares the same tube size with the 7mm crowns), you won't be able to fit any gen or gen sized parts.. dial size is the common 29mm size, even bezel insert size is different. Yuki cases still has the wrong size.. from what I've read they're still 40mm (instead of the proper 38mm) but these cases have a better looking stem and crown, proper sized insert.. only downside is the rehaut... maybe the 5510 yuki case is better... lets wait for the experts to chime in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronochef Posted June 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 From what yuki qouted me the price difference would be about $700 between yuki and silix. Pretty substantial. Can it be that much better? But yuki sells the ETA adapter set. Would that be an option for the silix case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
