New Replacement Rolex 116610 LN Sub Bezel and Insert from Clean Factory

[ChinoWolf]

Hi all,

Today one of my dealers in China has shown me some pictures of a newly designed replacement bezel and insert for Noob or ARF 116610LN Sub. I took a quick look at the pictures and looks like it's quite good but I am just a newbie here so I would like to hear more from you guys. I was able to translate the the description in Chinese to English however I don't know how to upload the picture so I can only attach the translation on Imgur's description field. Here are the links for the pictures:

So what do you all think? Took me a while to translate it so please share your thoughts! My dealer told me the whole set (insert+bezel) will definitely be cheaper than the Spongebob mod so would be curious to hear your thoughts! I don't have Spongebob insert so I won't be able to do a comparison however I should be able to a few of these so PM me if you have the Spongebob insert and would like to do a comparison for us!

Thank all!

(If someone can teach me how to embed pictures in the thread or do it for me that will be awesome!)

cool!

With that much attention to detail they should produce their own line of subs.

I think it’s a game changer for 116610 LN rep. This bezel, a gen datewheel and a gen xtal should be enough for a franken.

smoke what do you think about this insert?

 

[Smoke]

Looks like they designed it like a gen insert. The pin hole for the pearl.you need clear pics to really determine if it's good Or not really.but does look promising

I think it may just look a little larger because it's cleaner. The description says a gen was used to mold the rep so sizes of cutouts should be nearly identical

The dealer said the factory hasn't released actual products yet but it will soon. Not sure what the price will be but given this is a mass production by a factory, they can't really charge a ton. Will let you all know when I get my hand on one.

Factory has designed if for the gen spec, so this is a package: bezel, washer and insert.

 

[k4jun]

Starting from 2014 to 2015, the buckle of oyster bracelet has changed from sanded to a polished finish. What most people failed to realize, is the fact the Rolex also changed the milling finish of bezel teeth from horizontal to vertical. It's more cost and time consuming to produce vertical brushed finish. Currently, most other rep factories still use horizontal brushed finish

Many thanks ChinoWolf for the translation

I do not know whether they are correct in claiming the transition took place in 2015, but if they are aware about such details - it means they indeed had gens in the hands, and do have a good eye for the details.
Here are two gen bezels, one has the scallops brushed horizontaly, other one has a vertical brushing.

Looking forward to more info on this...... looks good.

Super interesting detail re: brushing direction.

 

[johnlogan]

I will order 4!!

Do you know if CF is looking into making GMT & YM inserts / bezels ?
