Some parts. Are they genuine?


Ptolomeo

Recommended Posts

As some of you know, I'm working in two franken-projects: a 1680 (based in a MBW1680) and a 14060M (based in a MBW 16610).

I've bought some "genuine" parts and I need to know your feedback about them. Are they really genuine? Are they the correct parts for my projects?

Three crowns. Are they genuine? For what models?

Crown 1. I'm not an expert but this one looks to me a gen triplock:

Crown 2. It looks a vintage model but I don't know what model is, what tube it needs and for watch models can fix:

Crown 3. The crown looks OK but I can't iddentify it. Maybe a gen crown in a rep tube?:

And a tube:

Bezel for a 16610. Will it be correct for a 14060M? Will I be able to put this one in a MBW 16610 case?:

A 1680 dial. The seller told me it's a genuine dial refinished. I think it could be a white one version painting now in red:

A 127:

I've bough too a genuine 14060M dial in mint condition. I'm sure this one is genuine.

Thanks for your help and opinions.

Un abrazo,

Carlos

The experts are probably still in bed... do you mind telling me where you sourced these parts from? You can PM me directly thanks!!! I am also looking at doing the 1680 project for my MBK. Your 1680 dial looks gen... maybe professionally refinished?

PM me asking about the part you're interested.

The dial is a genuine white "submariner" font dial, refinished and repainted in red.

The dial looks like an NDtrading aftermarket repaint (not bad, but not gen either). One of the 2 open crown tubes looks aftermarket, the other either gen or Swiss-made aftermarket (these are generally a similar quality to the gen). Obviously, the tube in the sealed Rolex pack is gen. The crowns all look like different versions of gen Triplocks (3 dots denote a Triplock). The bezel & insert look aftermarket, but it is difficult to be sure based on your photos.

Others may be able to offer more info.
