danielv2000 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) I picked up a gen 1570 movement with a missing jewel. Where does one go about sourcing a replacement? Would a watchsmith have these handy? Thanks for the advice! Edited April 24, 2013 by danielv2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillycheez Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Nearest AD with a watchmaker that has a Rolex parts account. I'm sure he can hook ya up.Or maybe this? : http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=130880291972 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 1570s contain a number of jewels. Knowing which jewel it is & where the jewel came from would help. If you can locate the specs for the jewel, you can purchase generic jewels (which are fine) from any of the watch parts houses (julesborel.com, cousinsuk.com, ofrei.com, etc). Depending on the jewel, you may also need a jewel press or stalking tool to install the new jewel. You may be better off having a watchmaker handle this.

danielv2000 Posted April 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 It's on the auto wind assembly. How easy is it to remove the auto-wind assembly? Ay tutorials or videos out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
