Stephane Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Hi Guys, Sorry for asking but I browsed the Rolex section to find this case back... THE GEN I remember that some member received his new MBK/MBW 1665 with this case back instead of this one: Can anybody point me in the right direction pls ? Cheers and thanks, Stephane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Posted December 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Thanks Robi... I'm not looking for a second 1665 GW though, only for a picture. Well, I should have more clear and ask "can anyone post a pic of their 1665 MBW/MBK with the same case back as the genuine I posted here?" Cheers Stephane ...seems like you had some belgian beer today...or is it me seing double posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perry563 Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 I bought my GW from TTK about 6 months ago and it has a caseback exactly the same as the first picture above. Its a spot on rep thats for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perry563 Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 No I dont have that ability right now. Its exactly the same from what I can see comparing mine against that first picture. Of course my MBW letters/nembers is filled in with some sort of black paint on the case back. As a side note to everyone if you are in the market for a Rolex rep go for the MBW 1680 or 1655. They are so well made and beautiful examples of wrist art. I perfer the GWSD. The only mod I made was installing a Clark superdome crystal and waterproofing. Stunning watch that only someone who really knows Rolex could distinguish from a gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingkitesurf Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 The caseback that normally comes with the MBW (straight above the middle) is the one that should go on de DRSD. Fact is that the majority of the DRSDdials were interchanged for whites in the time when serviced by Rolex officially. So they should actually been DRSD. So the MBW caseback on the DRSD and the WSD 1665 could both be believable. Fact is that of the 'correct' version there is no rep... so if a watch has the rounded caseback 99% it is gen.

cib0rgman Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I keep hearing about these cases and yet to see one. do they actually have a Website? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 I'd also be highly interested!! Since i already have a Great White... i now only need a correct caseback. You guys think Paso also sells the caseback as sparepart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellomen Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 I bought a DRSW from Paso a few days ago and it has the old caseback. Beautiful watch btw.. Since it's the double red it should have this caseback so that's correct I hope Paso can get us just the caseback for all our great white's that have a DRSD caseback.

Yes me too. It is correct to have a DR caseback on a GW of course as the dial could have been changed from Red to White. But when having several 1665 (SR-DR-GW) it's damn sexy to have the latest caseback for the GW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarini Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 That is the correct caseback for the DRSD i recived the same one on mine from Paso that said i went and changed the dial on mine to GW dial hehe now need the GW caseback . That said i asked Paul for a spare caseback actualy 3 pieces but he never came back to me on that . Laz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I told you Paso hade them... //robi Paso was out of stock and he didn't verify that he can deliver just the caseback... so i am waiting on response from him... and Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
