HauteHippie Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Parts were bought quite well so around $1800 give or take a little. Not bad at all. Used gen prices have been on the rise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watcher Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 You can specify one on a service if you like so yes it can. Bracelets are going for stupid money these days!! Im going to have a word with my local dealer who I have bought a few Rolex over the years for a price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
correctime Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 You can specify one on a service if you like so yes it can. Bracelets are going for stupid money these days!! Im going to have a word with my local dealer who I have bought a few Rolex over the years for a price. They can be requested as an upgrade option until the standard 25-295-C pool dries up. This is soon to be the standard replacement crystal. As for gen bracelets...you're right...they're priced ridiculously high. I landed a gen 93250 SEL for 975.00...and sold it the day after it arrived...to me the cost simply wasn't justifiable for a Franken. I landed the 78790A SEL and it doesn't really look or feel any better than the Noob Bracelet to me but I kept it "only for the gen case set build. If you can fit an acceptable SEL fit with a rep or aftermarket Oyster, stick with it..... NOTE: The minor gap found in the SEL fit of the Noob Exp.II's is caused by the lugs, not the SEL. The Noob fits the gen case as well as the gen does..and the gen fits the Noob case like the Noob does...same gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6now Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Nope. The laser etched crown was introduced in 2000, starting in updated models like the 114270 and 14060M, others got them later like the 16600 and 16610 in 2003. Dee Would you know what sub series?

Eiderdaus Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I thought no engraving sub doesn't suppose to come with ar crystal. correct me if I am wrong correct. maybe only if you had it serviced and they replaced the xtal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
correctime Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Y serial is 2003 ish. That's right. And during this Y to F series transition is when they phased out the Flat 4 Tritium inserts and went with the Pointed 4 luminova's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_rymeister Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Looks great buddy, I can't stop wearing my tc sub, such an awesome sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainJack Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Great looking sub watcher. Your list of gen parts are exactly what I'm getting ready to have installed on my TC case. I swapped out the clasp from TC'c band for the one from my WM9 V3, it looks a bit better. If I hadn't bought a POS WM9 V3, my investment would be on par with your stated cost to date.

fidhle007 Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 It's big enough for a rep dial so at least that big... Lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watcher Posted April 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Don't know precisely but it fits a gen dial without problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
