Duncan (aka TheWatchBloke) of this parish fitted one to my Snowflake.
It was part of a service but I’m sure he’d do it as a crystal change only. Worth dropping him a message.

I believe so yes but no idea how active he is on here. I’ve always used email or IG

He’s generally quite busy but always replies. You can expect quite a long lead time on any work but imo James is well worth the wait. Best in the business

Agree with this. Have purchased (and sold) through these guys and no issues recommending them at all. Both of them have great knowledge and watches!
That is what I paid (inc. the viscious) earlier this week. Just waiting for delivery of mine.
It's a term given to the shape of the coronet on the 'Pre Comex' dials due to it's "smudgy and very fat at the bottom" appearance (from 5513mattedial.com).
Thank you :pride: Quintessential Rolex IMO, simple and elegant. Make sure you buy the best that you can, it'll pay off in the long run!
Here’s my 1977 ‘smudge’ crown or Pre-Comex 5513

Rather greedy of him ... If you can get a fully original version in very good condition then result. I'd love to have one in my collection. One sold on here about 6 months ago that looked an absolute...
If you're looking to go the vintage Seiko route then IMO you can't have a collection without the 6217-8001 (62MAS). However saying that I think the BB54 is a fantastic all rounder and would be...
Keep us posted please Tony. May come to you for a contact if all goes well!
Wow! That's tempting .. I'd assume it's gone up a bit by now but if they can be had direct from Tudor then I'd consider one for my Snowflake.
Looks great Tony, well done :occasion14:

I've often seen pearls 'fixed' in with a dab of glue / cement on the backside of the insert, I assume this is just a secondary protection in case the hole...
I think that looks cool but I personally like the 'ratted' look. IMO a couple of layers of clear coat to protect the flaking and any further deterioration and that would look fantastic!
Man, that looks fantastic :notworthy:. I now want to send you all my oyster bracelets to be redone!! Great work!

What a fantastic tip on how to make a minor adjustment to timekeeping :thumbsup: Assume this is if the timekeeping is constant, I'm guessing if it's erratic then this would highlight a more...
Much better than my attempt [emoji1303]

No problem Duncan. Best I can muster with my limited skills. I’m sure an expert will be along shortly to show us how it’s done [emoji4]

I think I should let someone who’s good at this take over and stick to my day job ?[emoji23]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230310/c3c091842adf8f77df8ebbae4f8c126c.jpg
