Lovely watch, a bit less keen on Pepsi’s but that looks stunning.

Looks great that way, rarely see a Coke with jubilee.

Did you use a 6 digit gen crystal 25-295-car-c1?

Ive been thinking about doing that on mine

Yeah I had RSC replace the previous one with 6 digit. Enhances the face of the watch immensely.

Nice, I'm surprised they did that for you. They can be real bitches about changing anything from stock.

I found it depends on your relationship with the people at the RSC. I’ve had both mine serviced at the Beverly Hills RSC. On my D series, I had them install one with lec + ar, and there was no problems with them doing that. On my A series, with lug holes, I asked that they replace the crystal with one without AR. They said they would try, and it came back with a crystal without AR. I found it helps if I bring my watches in and speak to the representative in person rather than sending it in by mail, or thru an AD.

Agreed! The only thing that seems impossible to do up here in Toronto is replace anything and have them let you keep the original part. Exception being bracelets.

Interesting. When I tried to get a Jubilee “50” bracelet for my D series, I was told I’ll have to trade my oyster bracelet to get it. Seems like you have better luck with your RSC. Mine did, however, allow me to keep my Coke insert when I bought my all-black one. They did not make me trade it in.

They look good, and I was seconds away from buying one a few months back. But then I found out about the thick caseback, and I'm tired of hunting for parts. It's so irritating, why did BP make such a mistake?

I agree, it’s bizarre they made that decision. Makes no sense at all, apart from wanting to use up existing parts stock I guess.
