Bjd1020 0 Posted November 3, 2019 I had an epiphany as I was scouring the innerweb for the gasket......the pour dia of my 3D printer is about .008"...........maybe I could just print one.....it worked. Still a bit if a gap but def better than the first try. I think if I mess with the design of the cross section that will help. My TD has offered to give me a credit towards my next purchase which Ive already made.......that was my request. As for the amount I think its best to keep that to myself for the sake of the TD. I will say this though....there is a slight disparity between Chinese watch repair hourly rates and NC Shade Tree Watch Repair rates. As far as im concerned this issue has been resolved.....thanks for all the help again......If anybody wants to see me strip a 7750 with my eyes closed just let me known..I donhave one more question which Ill post separetly just to close all loose ends. I also did go back to the QC pics to verify the watch I recieved was the watch I picked....and it was. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bjd1020 0 Posted November 3, 2019 This thread shows again one of my main reasons why i have a limit on reps of 400$ . Over that amount i would go for a gen . Sometimes we forget that these watches come from random factories and assembled in fuck who knows.... This shows again that NOOB quality control is sometimes so crap because of his massive production in all kind of watches . Plus i would even think that watch didnt even came to the TD hands , maybe some noob worker of him with no experience ..... Brother show me the road where I can get a gen for the amount of money youre proposing???? Even double that??Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_frenchman 31 Posted November 3, 2019 6 minutes ago, pickledbeetroot said: You posted after 400 it wasn’t worth it so you’d just buy the gen. Yep , that is what i meant and it is my opinion . My limit in reps is 400$ ( or around 400$ if you want it more exactly ) after that , if i have to invest more than 400$ , i will go for a gen ( not a rolex , just any gen watch ) . for 401$ i can easily find a nice HAMIL auto , or a pre-owned TAG quartz , or any other brands . Just talking in my experience so far . Am i clear ? Or is it just that i didnt correctly express myself on my first post ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crystal is hold with “crystal clamp” they different shape between sub and gmt but serve same purpose That clamp has a step down on lower portion to hold the tiny plastic ring “hyrtle” Hyrtle ring goes on to grove in the bezel (sub and gmt) and when pressed evenly will hold bezel on the clamp When you press not straight, you damage the ring by smashing it over the metal At Rolex they treat this gasket as one time use, every-time the bezel is pop they use new gasket to assure is not deformedEven some of gold or platinum Daytona’s use the gasket to hold the bezel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
