Special piece up for sale today. Watch was built by pompompurin using a "eBay" case and the listed genuine parts. I have enjoyed the watch a ton since I purchased it. Always seem to get compliments on this one- it is incedibly gen-like. Letting it go to free up some funds for other projects.
Condition:
Watch runs great and everything works as it should. Dial is in perfect condition without any marks. The genuine datewheel aligns perfect. Watch as been used. Case has marks around the lugs. Bezel has marks all over. Please refer to my pictures and the previous sales link. While the bezel does have marks through out, it has retained all of the black bezel paint and you can still see the Rolex factory brushing. Bracelet and clasp are near new and have had minimal use.
I received the watch on a solid endlink bp bracelet- which didn't fit well and wasn't period correct for the "Swiss" only dial, so I mostly wore the watch on a strap. Recently I picked up and raffles bracelet and clasp, and a nice set of endlinks from ewatch parts. The current hollow endlink bracelet and the clasp are period correct for a early 16570 with this dial. I no longer have the bp bracelet.
Here are the specs from the previous listing:
Build specs
- gen "Swiss" Only dial

- gen 603 crown
- gen bezel
- eBay 16710 /16570 case
- VR3186 movement
- Swiss 5330 tube

Pompompurin's Modifications
- Added chamfers to the lugs
- Increased the rehaut diameter so that the rehaut height looks shorter like genuine and the dial appears less squashed. This mod was done with reference to my gen 16570
- Polished the rehaut and brushed it
- Regulated the movement
Selling for $1,700
