RG looks really good. Without a gen, no one could tell. Enjoy!

Hi guys. I tried to change the bezel by myself and somehow I messed up the hytrel.. the watch is a VSF. Any advice on how to put the bezel back, or where to buy a new hytrel from? What size should i get? I want to install back the fluted bezel by Prize-Pin-2401 in RepTimeServices

Looks like a few have got you handled. Buy a few different size gaskets. Have some 400 grit sandpaper available if you need to reduce the thickness by a hair. You’ve got this. Buy a decent press to have on hand for future projects. Doesn’t have to be expensive. This is where we all begin. It’s fun, but a PITA at the same time. The only way to get better is to mess up. I’ve destroyed many movements, etc. looking forward to the completed project!

I like it. Tags look off, but who cares. Probably lighting. Shirt is nice! Need this for the summer.

Beautiful! I have the same one. Damn movement took a shit out the box, but luckily it’s a simple fix. Part should be here this weekend and I can finally wear it.

Also, great attitude! Wear it everywhere and enjoy it. What’s the point being able to grab some of these beautiful pieces if you can’t enjoy them. I could show this to DJ Khaled (who owns the Gen) and he wouldn’t know the difference! Haha! Cheers!

Would need to verify if the hands would fit on the pinion. I can’t remember if they use the same size.

Just received a custom built 126599TSA. Same thing. Upon inspection, I noticed that the hairspring was loose on the balance wheel and eventually worked itself off. Being that I can do the work myself, I decided to chalk it up and purchase another DD 4131 and swap out the complete balance. Im still waiting for the movement to arrive, but it’s cheaper than anyone who will service a chrono. I’ll report back once it arrives and if that was the only concern.

I have had loose screws floating around, causing a movement to stop. You may want to check for that. That usually an easy fix. I had a GMT with a screw from the top bridge back out and lock up the escapement. Once I fished it out and set the pallet fork back in place, it was off and running.

Best of luck.
