5513 pip replacement
Does anyone have a suggestion about a good source for a pip replacement?
I was looking on ebay, and I found someone selling one that looked close, but it looked like it had a little bit too much glass around the edges: https://www.ebay.com/itm/25546913678...Bk9SR_Lk88_rYA I think the center part is usually a little bit wider than it appears on this piece. |

Two things.
1) It is coming from Hong Kong - expensive shipping from there. 2) It does not look like an original Rolex pearl. Normally, decent pearls sell for $250 and more from vintage dealers.

Yes, absolutely. The last one I bought was $300. And then I accidentally dropped in on the floor and it took me about half an hour to find it with the help of a UV flashlight.

What would be the recommended glue to re-attach a loosen pip on a Rolex bezel insert?
