New aftermarket 16710 case set

[drvintage]

Is it me or??
The color doesn’t match at all

raffles bracelet?

 

[Joshuamodi]

Maybe you do as well, I’m quite familiar with 5 digit

I’m talking about the sel to case fit. This is a clear indication that the sel is to short, towards the case. Same issues with the Viet cases. BP endlinks are not gen spec, well at least not all of them.

Just use a tool to make the gab smaller on the end links? Easy fix

raffles bracelet?

Yes it is. The color difference is huge with this case. Never encountered this before I have to say.

That would work with removable endlinks, not solid like on a BP

I haven't checked this right now. But however I know that this might be an issue caused if the abrasive is not hard enough.

Attached you'll find two pictures showing the difference:

Just the mid part has already been rebrushed:



One clasp has been rebrushed, the other not:

Ah ok, I understand what you mean.
So the BP Case is a lot thicker as this one. The bracelet is produced for the BP Case. It's not much but noticeable you are right..
I will try do determine this in the next working progress. Keep you all updated.

Just finished one today with slight mods on CG, which actually is not needed much.
Pictures along with OC 16000 case, also great case.

looks awesome! What bracelet did you use?

Can’t wait to see the V2!

Hi, can I ask you where it is possible to find a good replica, like a Rolex Daytona? Thanks for your availability

This isn't the right thread to ask this question. You should also read through the forums and do some homework as this question is asked a lot and there are tons of threads on various Daytona Reps available.

Thanks!
Sourced from Oysters Jubilee, maybe not so much popular here.
They have so called sports jubilee with 50 stamped on the back of 1st permanent link.
Products are good but a bit pricey.

Looks great! Did you used a genuine dial on the 16710?

Thanks and yup gen dial with some wear and tear. As you might know if you have sapphire 5 digits, these niggles are not so much visible.

That’s 100% a gen dial.
Except for the super rare Noob 16710, no rep maker ever gets the “O” in the old Rolex font as slim as gen.
Not even TC subs got it right.

Just ordered! Thank you very much for all your work in making this case. Fantastic job!

Great case for a 16570 Build. Accepts Gen parts very smoothly.
As mentioned, a 24-5320 tube sticks out a bit, can be fixed with sanding. Italian 78790A bracelet fits nice, with small space in the middle of the lug.
The watch feels sleek and is nice to wear.

build looks awesome! does anybody know where I can find an Italian 78790A?

Get in touch with markiemark. He starts groupbuys from time to time. And if he runs another GB I'm sure he'll add you too to the list.
