GC 4,481 Posted December 12, 2019 May I ask how this watch came about? As I’ve been trying to replace a stolen 14060, wore it for 11yrs but was stolen 15yrs ago, which was a present for my 18th birthday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stufuse 73 Posted December 13, 2019 Is it a BP case? Looks like one, the misshapen CGs and heavy lug chamfer are saying it’s one of their 5 digit cases, i could be wrong Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

k4jun 251 Posted December 16, 2019 Evening guys. Base watch was this https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/replica-watch-sales/7719708-rolex-14060-minifranken-w-insert-issue It arrived no insert and a bezel was moving freely, without a click. Bezel had a regular 16610 size and my mate has machined it down, its size still is not 14060 size (39.5mm) but that's it - I am not going to trim it any further as it may damage bezel teeth. Insert is BP flat four. It does not flush with a bezel as the bezel is not rep/rolex spec. Angle of the bezel is different than angle of the insert, to make a flush I would have to file insert, or bezel, or both, not worth imo. Case has a hole at 7 o'clock for bezel click spring, but the bezel is like this.. Don't know what this bezel is but it is not rolex spec. It gave me some pain to make it click, but eventually I cut a circular spring to the correct size so now the bezel makes a click and is uniderectional. Case prob is rep 16610 reshaped by a previous owner, but I do not know the maker. If it had any engravings - they are removed now. But it is an old case. Not sure is it visible on the photos but case has dings and many swirls so it's been worn a lot. Watch had a fantasy bracelet, so next I got new one from ebay, it arrived as 70216 bracelet with 455b endlinks, which makes me think this is WSO. Out of the box it was all brushed, and rather shitty, not very close to gen 93150/501 endlinks. I polished the sides of the bracelet and then sourced in M2M two additional pairs of endlinks so those on the photos are already bend. Ebay bracelet had sterile clasp and diver extension - no Rolex branding, I bought those rep parts in M2M and swapped them. I rebrushed bracelet, endlinks and clasp with a green pad so all of it has one grid now, but htis bracelet is one big hybrid. Watch has a regular springbars, no long vintage rolex springbars, and this is bracelets fault. Vintage sprinbars are too fat for the endlinks:/ I stopped working on the watch but tbh these short springbars are pretty big tell now. Glass is 30mm so it is not 14060 crystal, asian eta inside, dial looks like 16610 size dial (just 14060 layout). I trust the starting point was one of those 14060 reps which have size of a regular 16610, and someone shave a case, then sold it and someone else lost the bezel, sold it, someone else installed gen crown but kept the bracelet, next someone else has chipped the glass and watch was approaching a waste bin.

There are some minor differences, 1 or 2 parts which I forgot now. Those clone movement, out of the factory have no serial, no engravings, all are sterile. Yuki and SH do have the same rep serial - 5510969. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
