sgtguk Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Great looking Lv is that a Gen crystal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milesd Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Looks great. I keep going back and forth on this watch. I'd like a modern sub, but not sure if this is it or not. Does this have his V3 bracelet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PilotI Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Not a gen crystal but one from BC. the mods are: TC SUB 1. TC V series Sub as mid case (no rehaut engraving and gen crown position 2. Aligned the 6 and 9 indices on dial. 3. V2 Bracelet SEL fit 4. BC Crystal I'm planning to put in a V2 Datewheel and maybe the V3 bracelet and do something about the pearl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w.genzo Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Nice one. It definitely deserves a better pearl and a V3 bracelet, but TC's it's the best LV version at the moment. Crystal looks very good, but I still don't understand why investing big bucks in a AR crystal which is incorrect for this serial instead of using money for other stuff like gen insert/crown/bezel,dwo..

I like the AR, makes reading the date so much easier. Let's say this is a 2010 random series LV What would you recommend todo with the pearl?

its_urabus Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 swap a gen pearl from a black insert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastersdom Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Just waiting on mine. Where can I get a BC crystal? Yours looks brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhitesox Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 swap a gen pearl from a black insert? Good idea cause the colour of the green insert actually looks pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GBOGH Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Looks great! I have a similar custom built LV sans insert from TC, but turned off by the gen LV insert prices ($450-600 range), and the aftermarket LV inserts are mostly crap, so I'm not sure what I plan to do yet. I may pop in a SS colored insert and see how it looks, kind of like this early Tudor model that was once available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muaitai Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Does anyone have TC's email address? Look for info here http://tc-submariner.blogspot.com/ Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takosan Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 Very nice! What kind of insert is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PilotI Posted October 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Just a quick update my sub is making slow but steady progress. I've ordered the new V3 bracelet and V2 DWO from TC. I also managed to install a gen pearl in the TC LV bezel. it looks very nice altough the photo does not do justice at all: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
