Not so fast. You are talking about an 1803. A model that has been discontinued for decades. The other poster, if his avatar is accurate is talking about his watch which is considerably newer and OEM parts are still available.

You may have a harder time sourcing 1803 parts from an RSC and if you do they will be bright white and a service part which will stick out like a sore thumb. I would suggest finding a nice set of used wheels with some patina on them so that they blend in with the patina already on the watch.
