scotty Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 Hi there all experts. I'm thinking about trying to transplant some gen parts into my 45.5mm UPO (ETA 2836-2 I think). I'm trying to identify the correct reference numbers for some gen parts. The gen model from the Omega site is 2200.50.00 The caliber is 2500 - so I've gotten that far......! I'm looking for the correct case number references for a crown and tube, and the right reference for a dial and hands set (hour, minute and second). Also if possible a bezel. Maybe the HE valve also, though that's not priority. Does anyone have experiece if the above can be done successfully? Does anyone know all the right part references to look for ? Is anything else needed for such a project?
bigpops Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 If someone can provide the case back number or the 45mm PO, i have the Omega parts list (for modern not vintage watches) here so can look them up.

Hi bigpops, may I ask you to look for some parts for a gen OMEGA SMP mid-size? I need some links for the bracelet and I am not sure whether I found the correct ones on Ofrei. Maybe I can send you a PM for further details. I would appreciate your help. Regards Moppel
bigpops Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 If it's the bond style mid-sized you need to get them for, Ofrei has them listed as OME-114ST1501. I happen to have a gen mid sized bond Seamaster, and the bracelet number is 1502, with 824 end links. If its one of the other mid-sized Seamasters, just PM me the case back number, and i'll have a look.
vlaletom Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 if youwish to put a gen valve you can have a look to this thread where i discribe the process i used to put one in an SMP Pro ...

Hi - thread a little hi-jacked there! All I've got is the model number 2200.50.00 from the Omega site. Nothing to get the back off with to check any numbers inside for what could be a rep of the gen caseback number. No other way of getting all the references ??
bigpops Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 The whole book is referenced by case back number and material (ST is steel for example). The mid-sized quartz Seamaster i have here for example is referenced as ST 196.1522. A quick search with google, and i found this on Ofrei: "Planet Ocean Bezel 082SU1703 to fit Omega model 2200.50.00 Omega case number 168.1650" So i guess, the number i need is 168.1650. EDIT Right, here are what you wanted: Crown: 069ST42184 Tube: 090ST1232 Bezel: 082SU1703 NOTE: I don't know which colour that is. There is only one watch with this case number listed, and that's the only bezel number. The hands are on Ofrei as HAN-4221 (minutes and hour) and HAN-4222 (seconds) http://www.ofrei.com/omega-watch-hands-caliber-2500.html The HE valve parts are as follows: tube: 090ST1242 valve head: 286ST0005 spring for helium valve: 085ST0067 I'm sure there are more for the valve, but the complete set isn't listed like it is for the bond models, and the abbreviations are of French words, so i have to look each one up.
scotty Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Posted June 29, 2007 Dear Mr Bigpops. Really; thankyou very much for your time and help here. Very much appreciated. Now I have to try to haggle with Mr Ofrei over a package price, which I believe is going to be less than easy :-)

kiwi Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 The search function and this thread come through! My question: When ordering the crown and tube, is it necessary to also order a stem, or can that be re-used? Thanks!
