irolexu Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 There are a lot of SD threads lately...but I'll help you out. Not sure how much and how far you want to go so I'll list all possible mods that I know of for this watch. Replace pearl with gen or good afternarket Gen crown and tube mod 93160a tc bracelet Maybe replace the crystal with a nice aftermarket Trim crown guards Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace pearl with gen or good afternarket Gen crown and tube mod 93160a tc bracelet Maybe replace the crystal with a nice aftermarket Trim crown guards Enjoy The 93160 is not correct for this model- stick with the 93150 and either keep the 580 ends or get a set of 585 ends which are more correct. If you replace the crystal, you'll probably need a custom retaining ring from jmb- I did it and it worked out great- the watch is WR now also, but plan on spending $75-100 doing it- more if you spring for a gen crystal. Or leave the crystal as is and stay out of the water or have it tested first. trim the cgs is a must and easy to do you might have to service the 2846, but those are the breaks- it's a good old slow beat swiss movement.

woof* Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Your correct alligoat, and good advice. I assumed.. as the other poster he meant the new superlumed SD, but after clicking the link he means the 1665. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 I assumed this was for a 16600 my bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
