alberto.86 Posted October 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Yes, the difference! However, the crystal TC is great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollout Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Sorry to resurrect an old thread. This Mark VI LV is absolutely flawless. It has the correct "3 tick" swiss made marking on the dial and pointed "40" on the bezel for this series. Bravo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erict719 Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Tc dial is the best upgrade for less money spend then the gen dial. It's so hard to find one now a day. I have been looking for black sub version so long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chibiunko Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) Great looking 16610LV. Only tell that it's a rep is the fat 6 / 9 o'clock marker on the dial. Should be a thinner marker. Edited March 13, 2013 by chibiunko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alberto.86 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 better than this is the only genuine dial! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibiunko Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 The thing that gets me is that, the dial is the first thing most eyes go to when looking at a watch. So if there are any glaring imperfections on the dial, it's the first tell. Gen dial is not the only option. BP Ceramic Sub has a near perfect dial for much much cheaper. You just need to source a BP Ceramic 116610 sub dial and change the lume color from blue to green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alberto.86 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I am convinced that the dial BP and TC are the same manufacturer but with different light. must pay attention to the effect "light" in the picture. I was able to compare this with a dial BP and are absolutely identical my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibiunko Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Look at the fat 9 and 6 o'clock marker on TC and on BP. BP is skinny and long (like Gen), TC is fat and Short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibiunko Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Also Look at the "Swiss Made" On the BP it spans 2 spaces On the TC it spans 1 space They are def not the same dial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibiunko Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Oops I made a mistake. BP Dial is a Mark I Dial TC/BK is a Mark V Dial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alberto.86 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 That's right, BP is fat four. is your book? could you tell me the title? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alberto.86 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 however, you are right friend, it would take the glasses of BP. However, becomes a complex and burdensome task. For now it's fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ueno Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 What case did you use? looks like the crown position is bit low... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fidhle007 Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Only tell that it's a rep is the fat 6 / 9 o'clock marker on the dial. Should be a thinner marker.And that silly low crown position... Why did it take until now to figure that out and even then, why is no other case besides TC, Sean and SA3135 correcting this?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alberto.86 Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) the case is BK, and the crown is too low. As for the dial, the glasses have a minimal difference compared with the dial of BP. Please install the best solution would be an original dial. Found. Maybe TC will update its quadrants, sooner or later .. Edited March 14, 2013 by alberto.86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibiunko Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 That's right, BP is fat four. is your book? could you tell me the title? It's not my book. It's a book called "Rolex Submariner Story" http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Rolex-Submariner-Story-Limited-edition-500-copies-signed-Guido-Mondani-/281018021553#ht_14300wt_1040 http://www.amazon.com/Rolex-Submariner-Story-Franca-Mondani/dp/B0045SVK4I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
