Bigdoggy Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 (edited) elprimerozen Great looking watch. After you install the gen Crown and Tube, Look for a bargain on a 93150 bracelet, and you'll be home free. I have two questions: Where did you source the Gen insert? Rolex still offers a replacement insert for the 1680, but the AD's in my area (at least the three that I have contacted) require a valid serial # before they will order one. Did the insert fit the MBW bezel with no mods? Again, BEAUTIFUL watch Edited February 25, 2007 by Bigdoggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumum Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Great looking rep! I too am looking for a bracelet and dial for my vintage 1665. They are not easy to find. Lucky buggar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, BEAUTIFUL watch The bezel insert fit the mbw bezel with no problems..a single click and it was on.The same for the plexi crystal!As for the spare parts the insert was allready in stock(I was lucky) at my watch smith...but these are realy hard to find!
