I've now been wearing my new TC Submariner Rouge for 3 days. Out of the box, it was even better than I expected. The contrast of the beautiful black dial with the red Yachtmaster second hand is stunning. I think that the negative DWO (white numbers on black background) is even classier than the original. (Face it, I'm not pretending it's a gen...it's a great homage). I do agree that the date numbers a slightly more left justified than the gen, but I am more than satisfied with the watch. I think that it's going to be hard to wear the other watches in my collection at this point!

I am now the proud owner of a TC 16610 V6 - Yes another proud owner. This is my first rep I have ever purchased and I am not disappointed what so ever. TC is a pleasure to deal with and an absolute professional at what he does. Knowing what I know now I wouldn't hesitate to trust TC with my hard earned dollars. That being said - I'll start with a little watch background. My current genuine watch collection is a Tag 1887 first issue, Tag Monaco - Steve McQueen LE and an Omega Speedmaster Moon Watch - Apollo 15 LE. I have been wanting a vintage Rolex for some time, and although this is not a real one It feels great on the wrist. The moment I placed my order with TC I located a Gen bezel insert still in its blister pack from a very reputable source. I forked over the nearly $175 (over seas shipping included) and the wait began. TC has to build these, so you're not getting it overnighted to you or anything like that. I now believe that the wait helps with the desire - I'm a guy. Within hours of receiving the watch (about 4-6 weeks after placing order) I had installed the new gen insert and sized it for my wrist. Everything went very smooth as the watch is very well built. I'm on day three with my new watch and have received many compliments on its condition, being a vintage Rolex. Not a single one, not even my co-workers with gen 16610's, thought it was fake. This of course is partly because they have shopped with me for my Gen watches.... And mostly because TC's amazing attention to detail. Very proud of this addition and hopefully this will help satiate my growing watch appetite for a little bit - - doubtful. I forgot to mention - this is with the new TC 93250 V5 braclet Lets see if I can get images to load - I'm new Watch as it was shipped Watch with Gen Insert to compare With TC Insert With Gen Insert The rest are with Gen Bezel Insert in
