ww12345 0 Posted February 4, 2011 I don't know if this is the best place for this, maybe it should go in Mods? I just snagged these off ebay for what I thought was an insane deal. I remember hearing about people building Explorer 1s out of Datejust cases, and I saw "Datejust" and bid. Stupid. Now I find out that they are mid-size and 31mm or so. Are these good for anything? I don't think I can get an Explorer rep out of them, that's for sure. Here's the URL:Ebay Listing Also, what size crowns will they take? With my luck, probably not regular Datejust crowns, right? I should just stick to buying reps... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pentax 0 Posted February 4, 2011 The Mid size is 34mm Sorry to tell you I don't think that you can make another model out of them besides a Date just Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ww12345 0 Posted February 4, 2011 top r and low l + r look pretty decent tho.. id take one but 31mm ? I'll let you know when I get them... Maybe 31mm doesn't look that small... In all seriousness, if you want one, let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ww12345 0 Posted February 4, 2011 OK. I looked up factory specs and the 1016/1601 type case (the 1601 is the case that would work for a Explorer) is only 5mm bigger, excluding crown. Now, that sounds like a lot of room, but I wonder... Would rep dials, which are normally on the small side, fit in here like a glove?? Anyone know the inside diameter of the rehaut area of the 62738?
