icoopernicus Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 First of all, can I hashtag a forum post? I think I just did Down to business, I am having some s#itty luck with my Reps lately, they just seem to be falling apart. My latest issue is with my 116610 Submariner. The bezel pearl (which wasn't great to begin with ) has simply fallen out and of course I have no clue where it could even be, nor do I plan to look for it. Any idea where I can source a gen, or good rep pearl for this watch? While I like the look of a vintage sub that is a little beat up and missing the pearl, that look doesn't seam to suit this watch just yet and I would quite like to fix it. Any advice would be very much appreciative. I'm also still looking for a replacement DSSD dial, just throwing that out there. I also don't have a picture, I think "the pearl fell out" is pretty self explanatory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbosas Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hey, I have a NOS tritium pearl (part 31A-5513), but I think it's only correct for vintage models, 5513/1680.. don't if it will fit your watch though. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtools Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Since the pearls from an aluminum bezel submariner don't fit the ceramic bezel submariner, it might be easier to buy a replacement ceramic bezel. Here's one that's not too expensive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CARVING-CERAMIC-BEZEL-FOR-SUBMARINER-OR-GMT-38MM-BLACK-/200786383791?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ebfcd13af You could just use the pearl from it or replace the whole bezel.
