silvio Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 (edited) Hi guys, Seeking advice for first MBK mod, which is the 1665 SD. Found two links on the bay: 1. http://stores.ebay.com/Clark-Watch-Parts 2. http://stores.ebay.com/Florida-Watch-and-Jewelers-Supply Sorry, can't seems to get the direct link working. Mods please delete if this is unappropriate. Both looks pretty similar. Is there any experience with any of these? Much appreciate your input. Thanks in advance guys!

I hear both are nice, but the guy at Florida WaJS is a jerk to deal with and often ships the wrong items. Clark's ships fast and is always a pleasure to deal with.

Clark's ships fast and is always a pleasure to deal with. I guess the $50 difference can make a whole different service as well...:-( :-) Florida sells for 50$ cheaper than Clarks. Thanks very much for your input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offshore Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 silvio, G-S Crystals put out P/n PA462-67A to fit Tropic 39 (30.48mm). Ask your local watch shop! Just measure the inner dia first! These crytals do differ in size, in my G-S book there are 4 different crystals quoted for Tropic 19 for instance, all marginally different sizes.

alt.watch.obsessive Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Real is best, but Clarks are really nice. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offshore Thanks Offshore :-), checking out the site right now. Have been looking for a correct crystal for a Tudor 79090 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvio Posted September 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 The Clarks T39 is good, and the Helfands "flat" T39 is good. I've tried some of the others and ehhhhhhhhh... no thanks. Thanks for your info, Nanuq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvio Posted September 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Real is best, but Clarks are really nice. Good luck. Yes, been trying to locate those. But unfortunately they came with figures above my budget :-( Nothing beats the real ones I agree. Thanks for your reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo2001 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Clarks dome 39 is really very nice and worth the price. I'm wearing one now (on a watch, of course). I have tried the Helfands flat 39 and it is nothing to write home about...but not bad as a budget solution. I say go for the CWP dome!!
