Replacement Caseback

Hi- I'd like to get the caseback for a watch I am giving my daughter engraved, but would also like to do that on a replacement caseback (so I can keep the original one with the watch). Does anyone know the best place to purchase a replacement for an 116520?

Thanks!

Well first port of call Rolex themselves casebacks are not all that expensive.

Replacement Caseback

Rolex themselves do not sell spare parts to owners without some form of service. Call them to see if they can do the engraving.

It may be better to source a generic (I know, blasphemy) to have it engraved.

Rolex and an AD was not willing to sell me a replacement. Any ideas of where I can find one? Is EBay the best bet?
