Retaining ring for a 6542

[Champagnesky]

Hi! Does anyone know where I can find a retainer ring for a 6542?

Phong..

It should have a similar profile to the 6536 or 6538 rings but the diameters might be wrong.

If all else fails you can try JMB and his mad skillz at machining metal.  He could recreate Van Gough's "Starry Night" given enough time and brass.

I might be able to find a gen- but I need a part number.

No idea how to find the part number

A gen ring will be functionally no different than an aftermarket ring, if it fits right. Measure the OD of your rehaut, OD of your crystal and ID of your bezel. Then give JMB a PM.

Thx! Phong has them for 100 dollars.

That's not a bad price from Phong. But if you already have the bezel, you'd do better to send the case, crystal and bezel to jmb and have him turn a crystal retention ring for you- then you'll know the parts will all fit.

Does JoeyB make retaining rings or just the bezel and insert?

Also retaining ring. Should be identical to the one from Phong.
