help - replacement bezel for 16800 Submariner URGENTLY NEEDED
the catch is, Im only in South Cyprus for 10 more days, so I need it shipped ASAP within Europe....after then I move to Northern Cyprus for the next few months and the chances of finding a watchmaker there are somewhere between none and impossible.
Given the urgency Ill consider a decent aftermarket as well as original. Mine detached whilst making a deep- water entry - quite how the f$ck that happened Ill never know - but my piece looks kinda bare without it, and its a pretty important piece of kit for me - not just cosmetic, its a backup to my dive computer, and without it I feel a little unsafe leading groups of divers! So...do any of you good folks know someone who could help? Black/SS, build 1995. thanks a million in advance.... |

Are you talking about the complete bezel if so only Rolex can help you if its the insert then that will be easier to source.But at your present location its doubtful you could fine one the insert should be the same size as the 16610.

Sorry to hear that but I would say its will be only Rolex could help you, and would expect they would want to do a full service on your watch.Myself was a Dive instructor now retired, I once lost a SD on the Elphinstone reef south Red Sea but that was replaced by my dive insurance.

Well I had a all risks dive insurance with all my equipment even my camera and video against unexplained leaks or loss.Must admit had no hassle from them paid out in full think they were called dive guard UK based.But at the time could not find one local in the UK so replaced it on a return visit Singapore as a stop over on route back to Bali.
