[kadeee]

And here we go:

• OC Case set (what else if I post it here?)
• Gen Bezel
• Gen Dial
• Gen Hand Set
• Gen Datewheel
• Aftermarket crown
• VR 3185 (3186 engraved), fresh serviced
• Brown leather Nato strap from Yuki

I'm currently waiting for some gen gaskets to arrive in the mail.. so far none of the aftermarket crystal gaskets I had at hand maintained the waterproofing and the were all a bit too short. I have the same issues with the bezel inserts. (generic ones are all different sizes and shapes) The gen bezel insert fits perfectly.

My watchmaker, who has assembled the watch and serviced the movement, did a pressure test at 10 ATM with the crystal gasket that came with the case set.

The crystal and gasket that comes with the case from @drvintage is good and the seal is good. I'm mentioning here that most of the AFTERMARKET parts I purchased does not fit and vary in size and shape etc from the gen and there are too many variables. So far all the gen parts I used fitted with ease.

Aside from gen, I've always had good results with clarks crystal and gaskets.

Yes, different threads which means different tubes and also different inner tubes so the easiest way to see the difference between a 600 and a 603 is by measuring the inner tube, see reference pic

Does anybody perhaps have the correct reference for the gasket that fits inside the 6mm crown?, im trying to purchase a few spare ones but the rolex part numbers are really confusing, I have the 604 gen crown.

If I can remember correctly it was 1,5x0,7 o-ring
