Rolex aftermarket click springs

[timlo]

Hi all,

Is it acceptable for vintage pieces to have aftermarket click spring under the bezel? Does it affect its value much?

thanks

No. It does not affect value at all.

I think you might be taking this “all original” thing too far...

Aftermarket click-spring..

Isn't that a bent paper-clip?

Okay most vintages don’t have a click spring, they have a washer sitting underneath the bezel? Is that what you’re referring to?

Only the earlier modern subs have click springs, ala 16800, etc. mainly ones with a sapphire crystal.

Got it. Thanks.

Negligible to nil impact then. It’s a metal spring.

Using it for a 16808. Thanks for all the input.
