16520 sapphire problem!

Recommended Posts

Hi friend,

I recently bought one daytona with gen valjoux 7750 with sec@9 (http://www.rwg.cc/members/FS-Rolex-Daytona-Origina-t94844.html)...

.... as you can see in the pictures, one big flaw is the sapphire... it is not high enough.... I can't live with a law sapphire....

Question:

- Can I put a clarck crystal?? if yes, which one???

- Is the problem the bezel? is it too high and not flat??

Thank you so much guys!!!

Without measuring the inner & outer diameter of your existing crystal, it is nearly impossible to say what, if any, Clark crystal will fit your case or whether it will be any different than your current crystal. I think the crystal you have is about as good as you are going to get short of a gen (&, before you ask, no, I do not know if that will fit your case either). Frankly, the crystal is probably 1 of the last things I would be concentrating on. Read this.

it is not so easy to find a thick case and a good dial... Do you know where is it possible to find one good dial for my genuine Swiss 7750???

Actually, you would want a thinner case (not thick), but you might search out some of the threads by Ubiquitous about his 2 beautiful 16520 frankens. Ubi has more experience with these models than anyone else here & he knows his stuff.
