What tube and crown needed for DW Daytona?

[mil04]

Hi guys,

Could someone help me on what crown and tube do I need for DW Daytona? My seems to be stripped. Can I get one from Clark?

Thanks a lot.

Depends on whether you have an Oyster dial (screw-down pushers) or non-Oyster (pump pushers)? For the former, you can use either a 7mm Twinlock 700 (for an early production Daytona) or 7mm Triplock 702/703/704 (for later production). For the latter, only the 7mm Twinlock was used. In either case, the part of the tube that screws into the case is the same, so you just need to match the tube to whichever crown you go with. Once you know which crown, check with Clarks to see if they have the matching tube. Ofrei, JulesBorel & Cousinsuk all sell the tubes (Cousins are generally the closest to the gen Rolex tubes).

Be aware that these aftermarket cases are made with little or no QC & fitment problems are common, so there is no guarantee a better quality tube will fit any better than the original did. Only way to know is to try fitting a better tube into YOUR case. It often helps to tap the case threads prior to fitting a new tube. In most cases, this will allow the new tube to fit properly.
