im still looking for a solution to put an gen ( i mean 1675) size crown in that case without glueing the tube in - any ideas ? cheers, Frank

Comex - seriously ? that's gonna be not exactly easy - good luck

finally ! the old dial was shitzzzz - now only add a gen insert and bingo bongo bunga bunga

don't know why i love this cheap strap - works on everything cheers, Frank

cheers, Frank

yes he sells you the overlay - don't mention it for an TC watch (just kidding) the bezel look a little thick - you can get an Clark crystal + correct gasket - its not so expensive and you will see if the crystal sits better ...

if you really want to go the extra mile you have to get an BK DW overlay - the crystal hight is off - but im afraid its the bezel - it looks too fat 2 me ? cheers, Frank

cheers, Frank

yes - there change parts with every runs - or just polish them slightly different - middle cases, crowns, AR - you never really know 100% what you get

+1 and funky engravings on the CB - corrosion on hands too - i would stay away

the 40mm version - its much more accurate then the 42mm one - just got mine today and im impressed

my little tribute to the Playboy Mansion : cheers, Frank

sexy time !

okay . $500 shipped sounds fair - lets wait a few weeks if communication gets better

i left it in bleach for an hour or so - rubbed the sticky brown material off - let it dry slowly and used some mink oil to get is softer again.

yes the pearl got lost half way - or was knocked down - its still glowing .. strange saw a few inserts like this .. the Nato is this one : http://www.uhrenarmband-versand.de/Uhrenbandversand-p2132h1521s921-Uhrenarmband-22mm-br.html i aged is myself - will get now the 22mm version as it shrank a little cheers, Frank

so he offers even shipping over UK ? ... but i gave up on him never got any response to my PM anyway i just ordered the 40mm Explorer after found out that it will take gen parts too - will cure the sickness for a while

i think this is the way to go ... time to save some $$z

here is the list he sent me = $634 A. TC Submariner Watchcase with V-Series laser engraving. Price is US$200, valid until Jan 31, 2012. It comes with 1. the watchcase, 2. the caseback, 3, the bezel assembly, 4. rubber gasket (or so called o-ring) for sealing the caseback, 5. rubber gasket for sealing the bezel assembly, 6. TC's crown & tube, with tube already sealed with watchcase. Note the bezel assembly consists of 4 parts, the retaining ring, the bezel ring, an thin circular steel plate that works as cussioning between the retaining ring and the bezel ring, and the spring that makes the bezel assembly "clicks". The bezel assembly does not include bezel insert! Note the TC Sub watchcase is not perfect because the bezel ring teeth is not as deep as the late model v-series gen Sub. It is more like a 2002 k-series model. B. Genuine Swiss ETA 2824-2. Price is US180, valid until Jan 31, 2012. It comes with Canon #4 Pinion, which makes the hands height same to Rolex 3135 hands height. It eliminates the ugly factor most replica Rolex looked "fake". C. TC's 2824 Movement Holder. Price is US$20. It fits ETA 2824, Sellita SW200 or the Chinese clone 2824 properly into TC's watchcase, the included 2 generic Rolex style movement holding screws mount the movement securely in the watchcase. D. TC's Rolex Font Date Wheel Overlay. Price is US$15. It sits on ETA 2824's own date disc perfectly. The Rolex font dates is sophiscatedly printed it actually rises a little bit with high gloss just like gen. A circle of absolute position indicator is also printed so a watchmaker could attach the date wheel overlay on to movement's date disc very easily. E. TC's 2.0 mm Crystal. Price is US$35. It comes with a 2.8 mm Taflon gasket. The cyclops reads the date "almost" to 2.5x. F. TC's Submariner Dial & Hands. Price is $100. It comes Super Lumed. I will offer this set at $50 for members who also buy A, B, C, D and E. G. TC 93250 Bracelet, one piece end link. $30, valid until Jan 31, 2012. I will update this new version of this bracelet after CNY 2012. H. TC's Submariner Bezel Insert. Price is US$15. Note TC's Sub bezel insert is not perfect because the pearl does not have clear coating like gen. But the pearl does lume as bright as the dial indices and hands. Nonetheless gen bezel insert is recommended. Domestic members, shipping within CONUS is $5, USPS flat rate priority mail. Plus 2.9% PayPal fee. I will waive the 2.9% PayPal fee if you send it as personal means instead of purchase. EU or International members please note, I will not be responsible for all custom fee, taxes associated with importation, or VAT.

its sure the same fabric that did the WM9s or TWs - i don't understand why no other dealer offers them ? i find TCs prices too high vs the absence of communication - at least the prices i got (600 for the parts) - sadly Prec Time is not around any more - he sold the watches as PT Supreme for around 350 Euro? cheers, Frank

thanks a lot guys - the case didn't need any mods here a few pics for the NATO fans cheers, Frank

cheers, Frank
