Where to source original Rolex 1601/1603 parts?
By this I mean the strap buckle, which is NOS (New Old Stock) - do theses exist?
I see many straps on used vintage Rolex's which have been 'polished' so much the Rolex logo is worn right down on the buckle. And wondered if I could buy it in new condition to replace. Also parts like the Acrylic cover. Any ideas/suggestions? The Acrylic covers that watch sellers replace on Rolex probably aren't original Rolex -- are they any good? |

Thanks guys. Sorry I'm rather new (hence all the Q's! - apologies!!)
Anyone got his contacts? The Rolex acrylic covers have 2.5X magnification cyclops, but apparently fake ones have 1.5X. How about after market ones - anyone know? |

Also do all original Rolex parts have an identifying Rolex logo on them to show authenticity?
