vmena Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 I've just lost my pearl from my MBW 16610 and I'm thinking in replacing current bezel for a geniune or a good aftermarkt. Do you know if a geniune will fit with no mods in a MBW 16610? Any good source? Thanks in advance.
Brian Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 (edited) To the best of my knowledge, OEM parts w/o mods wiil only fit on the vintage MBW watches. I thought that rbJoe mentioned that the inside lip on the inserts need sanded/grinded down to work on our reps also. B Edited June 4, 2006 by Brian
Craytonic Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 yeah what joe told me. Apparently you can do it carefully yourself with a little sandpaper though.
ubiquitous Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 In most cases, genuine inserts have to be trimmed down on the back to fit properly as the rep bezels are just too shallow. In addition, most also have to be glued in place.
Tribal Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 Gen Insert doesn't fit on MBW 16610. You must Grind The Bezel or the Insert down and than it must be glued... Rg Tribal
palpatine Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 Gen Insert doesn't fit on MBW 16610. You must Grind The Bezel or the Insert down and than it must be glued... Rg Tribal correct!
vmena Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Posted June 4, 2006 correct! Do you think it worth the money buying a gen instert or a good aftermarket (like yours ) is good enough?
ubiquitous Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 If you only need a pearl, I might have an extra- It's just the pearl, and it has a metal surround. If I find it, and you want it, it's yours...
