Sometimes you realize you collect parts like you do watches.
The problem is i keep forgetting what i have an what in need.
I guess a watch hoarder is slso going to be a parts hoarder.
Ok these are just a few essentials.
Enjoy
PS this is a Rolex obsession. With my Doxa's I have to buy whole watches as no parts exist.

Bill, a nice collection
Needs to be feed! And your beautiful Rolexes need to be feed with parts! Best regards. René
That is crazy, Bill...
Time to figure out a way to keep track of all the odds and ends that you have.... I'm sure you could be a savior for many of us looking for X or Y parts. All the best, Alex
Maybe a fat font nicely faded sub insert?
Your beautiful 5513 would agree with me. Cheers to that! René
NIce selection.
When in need, it's a good thing to be your own supplier. No need to depend upon an external one. Best, Vte
Impressive collection. Perhaps time for a spread sheet ;-)
it also shows that vintage watch collection is complicated. Especially if One insists on keeping things 100% original.
..”a little”... LOL. Seriously, I know this problem first Hand. It’s a good idea what you do.
It’s also why I have become more reluctant with more “exotic”or uncommon vintage pieces. Eventually they will need service parts.
One brand/model you can forget is the 1960’s Doxa dive watches zero parts.
Only parts come from donner watches.
