Y3135 Movement and Gen DSSD Crystal in Noob DSSD

[RWI650]

All,
I have seen few franken dssd with gen dial and all but never seen a franken dssd with y3135 movement and gen crystal.
I recently acquired a 2014 noob dssd and have a Gen insert for it.

I wanted to take it to the next level by installing gen dial, gen hands, y3135 movement with gen crystal.

Is that all possible in this case? Do you know if the noob case accepts yuki movement and gen crystal?

Thank you

My Buddy Watchfriend has sell his DSSD Super Franken... I have Disassemble and Assemble it again heheThis Watch is really Amazing! She was so close to the Gen but she is also sooooo expensive...


So his Watch had an Case from PDAD (Modded) the case alone cost you with all works over 1000,-Eu


The Standart new DSSD (latest) doesn't accept Gen Bezel... So I had no Gen Crystal here now... But I would first measure the Rep! As it seems the Case looks like Gen Construction but it have no Gen Specs.


So the Gen Bezel doesn't Fit over the Rep Retainer... The Retainer must be made thinner...


So that means that the Retainer is bigger size, and I think the rehaut is also thicker then. And you will have probs to add an Gen Crystal... The Gen Crystal is then too small.


Yuki will be no problem but you must build an new Movement holder and you must do the same as you do with your 116610
You must reposition the Crown... Because the Movement sits too low if you don't do...


All in all an very expensive project... But nothing is impossible!!!

Zocker, thanks bud but I have seen guys with 2014 noob dssd with gen bezel inserts. Are you saying they don't fit?

I was under the impression that the entire gen bezel assembly was compatible with the current 2014 noob case as well.

Requires some case modifications per PBdad. We ran into the same issues when modding the noob v3 subc with gen bezel assembly. While it is "gen spec" its not exactly 100% gen construction. Case required drilling where the springs sat, rep springs were shorter than gen. PB decided to mod the case vs mod the gen parts. He mentioned similar issues with the latest DSSD in our conversations.

Best of luck on the DSSD build. Sounds……. expensive. Haha.

Ceocorna, are you sure? Misiekped did my gen bezel installation on noob sub c and didn't have to do any of these modifications to the case or the parts.

 

[ceoCorona]

Positive. PB said he drilled deeper holes for the gen springs. When he tried to install the gen springs they sat too high for the rest of the bezel to be installed. Maybe just variance in rep quality? I assume yours is the entire gen assembly for the bezel/ceramic correct?

 

[RWI650]

Yup, the entire assembly was gen.

You Guys talk here about different Watches! And different Specs!

1. The SubC Noob v3/4 and BP and J12 have exactley same specs on the Bezel Part.
the only different that is important is that you change all Parts if you use an Gen Bezel on an RepmSubC.
That means you need the Gen Retainer Ring because the lower part on the ring is smaller as the rep Ring. And the Gen Bezel use another Hyrtle ring (also smaller)

2. The DSSD latest Noob has same Construction as the Gen but the dimensions are different.
The Retainer on the DSSD is an fixed part on the main Case! And these Retainer is on the Noob Watch thicker.
So the Gen Bezel doesn't Fit on the Retainer. Also the Hyrtle Ring is different.
You have no chance to get the Gen Bezel on the Rep Watch without Modifications.

3. PDAD Has mod the first DSSD to an part of Gen Specs. He drill holes into the case for the Click Springs, then he use an Spring to hold the Bezel on the Case. The Gen DSSD has no Metal Spring. The Bezel will hold by an Hyrtle Ring as all new Ceramic Rolexes.

4. If PDAD will make an Mod on the new Noob all he must do, is shape the Retainer a little smaller.(thinner). But remember the Retainer is an fixed part of the Case. The holes he didn't need to drill because the new Noob has these Click Spring system already. And the position fit for the Gen Bezel also.



So as I said, nothing is impossible

Ok, if one was to avoid the gen bezel swap and just swap the rep ceramic insert with a gen ceramic insert. Is That Possible?

Getting back to the movement, fitting a Y3135 will be extremely difficult and costly. Who knows why they keep making Rolex sport reps with the 2836, which has the wrong crown position, when the 2824 is identical to gen. But the Noobs are all 2836, so to fit the movement you will need much more than a new retaining ring. You will need to weld shut the current stem opening, then drill and tap one slightly higher, which will also mean modifying the CGs out of gen shape. In the end, this leaves a pretty visible tell that makes a gen bezel a moot point. Anyone close enough (and who knows the watch enough) to appreciate the gen bezel will spot the problem with th CGs/crown placement.

I'm going to put a y3135 into my v7 sub . Craig at Yuki said they drop straight in , which is good.just wanted to know will gen bezel and crystal go straight on with the new v7 ? Any advice would be appreciated guys ,

 

[Thomasthetan]

Your talking about the 2836 movement ,but was talking to Craig and a y3135 will drop straight in or gen will with the sa3135 clone watch.are you on about putting the 28** will be hard to fit?

This is a almost 3 year old thread bro. The versions they were talking about are obsolete now. The new noob v7 and v6s at SA 3135 can take yuki or gen movement with no mods. Happy building

 

[Thomasthetan]

Lol cheers for the reply .
I'm going to frankin my watch ,and been looking at a gen movement I know it will cost me at least £1400_£2000, lm going in two minds ,when buying gen parts roter and train ,and couple of other bits in parts it's coming close to £1500 ,so the gen bezel will all be ok .?? Sorry didn't realise this was a few years old lol
