An 1675 case has no ball bearings at all. Bezel is friction fit.

I know that. But what about replicas ? I need one without bearings, simply.

What I don't understand is what makes you think a rep 1675 will have ball bearings? Any of the 1675 availble through the forum's trusted dealers won't.

As he just said none of them do and as a builder he’s seen them all. The bezel just pops off no bearings. The cartel build one from any of the TD’s would have the same case.

What are you blathering about ?

Nobody sells 1675 cases with ball bearings under the bezel assembly.

All cases - Cartel, BP, Vietnam etc will be without ball bearings.

Oh good Lord...go to Marvelous Replica and get their 1675. It's BP I believe and only $100. And like all the excellent modders above me have already stated, any 1675 from any TD should be devoid of bearings. Glaude , feel free to rename me to "spoonfeeder"..LOL

PS...kidding on the rename ;)

odessa you have reported this thread. I have read through it all and I do not see any "offensive slang" as reported. Please explain.

As stated clearly no 1675 has ball bearings. The bezel is friction fit with a retaining ring. The old 4 digit bezels are not uni directional.
