Mod On 1680

[ED_Rolex]

I have found that many experts here did drill lughole for the case... in order to suit the gen 2.0mm springbar, is that you drill (enlarge) the original holes of the case?

1. once I can place a 2.0mm springbar... can I use the gen rivated bracelet then? can a 16610LV fit with the gen bracelet?

2. I have made a screw of my bracelet "hurt", I can't make it out anymore... is there any solution?

3. what is the diameter of case tube for the 1680? 3mm like the 16610LV? I'm going to buy one in HK tmr and I hope I can get done

4. May I ask... the last question: how you all hold the watch so tight that you all can drill it without letting it moves (shakes)...!!! and I have ... drilled my finger!!!! Holy Clap!

Thanks all

Lugghole frill bit is 1.3mm and 2mm for bracelet.

You are very brave for doing this thing by yourself.

Heard this cases are a lot of a hell strong, try first with another stainless steel case.
