piratedzeus Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I am mainly interested in this modell. As communication with Silix is very slow I thought I also ask here.. Is ordering the correct bezel insert for this modell possible? Can silix also get a rivetted bracelet on that sub? Who in EU (UK prefered) would be interested in ordering a watch with me?

316L Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) here we have the original swiss rolex have a look at the bezel, the bezel rills are very different. if you wear the replica think about that. i think the differents are to big. painful? http://uhrentick.piranho.de/rolex/submarin...36-1/6536-1.htm and... http://www.worldoftime.de/index.cfm?pid=70...6&id=123919 http://www.worldoftime.de/index.cfm?pid=70...6&id=123920 http://www.worldoftime.de/index.cfm?pid=70&pk=1216 Edited August 10, 2007 by 316L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 The lug spacing on most reps is standard, so you should not have any trouble fitting any 20mm bracelet to that sub. You will need to check with Silix to see what bracelets he can offer you. As for the bezel insert, you may be able to fit a gen insert (as long as you can remove the existing one), but it will probably require some filing and sanding to get it to fit well into this model. I have never modded this version, so I cannot tell you how much work it will require. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratedzeus Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Gen insert is ~300$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratedzeus Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Well... is ANY of the dials correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gargoil Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Have just received one of these, have spent the last hour vandalising it so it looks ages, my girlfriend thinks I've lost the plot. Have told her I'm going to tie it to the back of the car and go for a drive with it dragging on the ground. Would also like to know where I can get an appropriate bezel insert for it, doesn't have to be to be accurate to the model just of the period.

piratedzeus Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Which one did you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gargoil Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) I got the one pictured above, only ordered it about 4 days ago, arrived in UK today, think I'm gonna order one of the others too. Bracelet is not too good but watch is pretty good for the price/novely item. Badly needs aged to look its genuine age. Removed the pearl as thats the biggest give away. Have put it on a nato strap, have an old genuine 60s type rolex bracelet which I am going to see fits. Edited August 10, 2007 by gargoil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
