1680 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hello, is there any sheet that shows with gasket goes to which ref. number / part of the watch? e.g. Rolex gasket 12.345.67 for 1600 Datejust for caseback. Btw: I got a gen 600 crown but without the gasket, what gasket do I need? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

automatico Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 1600 Datejust caseback gasket = 29-302-86 a flat cross section gasket, not round like a regular O ring. For generic caseback gaskets, order by the case reference number...1600 etc. "...gen 600 crown but without the gasket, what gasket do I need?" If it is the gasket that goes inside the crown cap, it is the 'crown gasket' pn 29-0600 a flat cross section gasket that is prone to fall away from the crown cap when unscrewed. Silicone grease will help hold it in place but the crown gasket also needs a bit of silicone grease where it seals against the end of the case tube so you put a little on both sides of the gasket...then it sticks to the case tube half the time and falls down half the time... The case tube gasket is 29-6000. Be sure to clean the crown cap along with the threads. I use a pointed wooden toothpick and let it run through the threads a few times from the cap to the outside while turning the crown ccw. If you wash the crown in solvent be sure it is 100% dry before putting it in the watch or cleaning solution may run out of the crown clutch/spring cavity into the movement.
