Ephry73 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Don't do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 It won't fit and the pearl is wrong for a 1665- like E says- don't do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Depending on the condition of the insert, the best thing to do is flip it around here and use the funds for a correct 1665. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

correctime Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) Isn't a 1665 an early Sea Dweller ?? If so, a 16800 insert won't fit. The Submariner crystal is about 1mm larger Edited January 20, 2013 by correctime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Submariner crystal is about 1mm larger You are right, they aren't compatible. Size wise and pearls are totally different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valty Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 1665 => "Fat font" insert, if you want to stay "original" You can also look for thin font 1680 inserts if you want to spend less. Or service ones 5 digits inserts will not fit (Sapphire models, not the same caliber) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
