As I was reviewing threads related to the Sub C, I saw a few inquiries regarding actual height of the Gen crystal. Was able to find a photo of a gen showing OEM crystal height against the bezel and insert. Hope this helps for modders out there. If you note looking left to right, not even Rolex gets everything perfect!

You went to the right person, I've been looking for 1.8 gaskets and can't find ANY that say they fit a 116610, have you water tested your sub yet?
