Broken setting lever 3285

[Usmc_cpt]

I have a clean gmt 3285 with a broken setting lever. Anyway to fix this or do I have to replace? I can’t find the part online.

Unfortunately there’s no new parts for the dd3285. Used or gen are your options.

You might be able to repair it using a staking set to re-rivet the parts back together.
Most or all rep setting levers are cast as opposed to being machined from solid stock and are inherently weaker and prone to failure as a result.

Found a genuine rolex setting lever on eBay. Just record and watch sent off to have it replaced. Fingers crossed
