Update

Thank you to all for the helpful advice. I have contacted Drew Zimmerman and he tells me that if the case middle part needs repair or replacement then it is most likely that the threads on the case back and case frame are damaged. (Hmmm...since only Rolex and Rolex factory-authorized repairmen have touched this watch since it was new, I wonder how that happened?)

I am shipping it to him for an assessment and, hopefully, a rethreading repair. You folks have saved me the $8,820 I would have paid Rolex to replace the middle part. And I would have replaced it because the watch has an irreplaceable memento value.


Thank you.
MDR
