greg_r 83 Posted October 3, 2014 Haltec: don't be an ass. I'm getting more than a little tired of your shitty attitude. mrchester2012: Losing a pearl is a fairly common event and it should be replaceable - replacement bezels are fairly easy to obtain, but a pearl may well be all you need. I'll let one or other of our Rolex-owning members chime in on this one, though This isn't a review, so I'm going to move this thread into the Watch Repair section, where you might get a few more answers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here you go: Should i get a new brezel , a new pearl or are there any way to solve this problem ?? I know what a question is, I was just making a relevant observation. By the way, what does "money doesn't play a rolex" mean? Been meaning to ask you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blackhawk699uk 0 Posted October 5, 2014 I've just ordered myself. I took me ages to find somewhere reasonably priced. I don't know diameter or depth tho. If anyone could help. I'm using mine for a custom insert I'm making. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) Rather than buying and trying to stick on a tiny pearl that will probably fall off again I have made a few by using a mix of lume and satin varnish, a small amount on a toothpick dabbed onto the hole does the trick. Its easy as the lume makes a single drop the perfect size, if it don't look good first go its easy to remove and redo before it sets.

JSJ 0 Posted October 5, 2014 Yes I've made them with lume powder and epoxy. The pearls with the clear cover are beyond me at the moment. I'd like to know where to source or how to make the tiny clear round piece. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
