vikkyrob Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Guys I bought this watch the other day with these specification: MBK/MBW 1665 case Swiss Eta Ubi datewheel (flat 3) Gen T-39 superdomed plexi Gen springbars Drilled CG Vintagized bezel & hands & caseback I love it but it is missing the pearl. I was in France this week and asked the Rolex dealer if he had a pearl for a vintage DRSD and he gave me a pearl for free. It looks like it should fit but what glue should I use and is it worth doing? It definiately needs a pearl of some sort in my opinion. Thanks Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Be careful if installing to the stock MBW insert. The metal the insert is made from is pretty soft and will bend if not careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 If the pearl is an undamaged gen, it should snap in (by hand) perfectly without the need for any cement. On the other hand, if the pearl is not gen, any epoxy or cement that is made for steel & plastic should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieselpower Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 You got something for nothing from a Rolex AD? Well done, and for a rep to boot? Kudos to you, Christmas came early. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauluk Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 if your watch has that much work done to it I would go for a new genuine bezel insert, luminova will finish your watch off great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
