Guest zeleni kukuruz Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Nice mate! But is that two joints you just smoked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSTEEL Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 If you say you have a gen insert and wonder if the bezel assembly is gen, then I have to ask, did the gen insert fit straight in, or did you have to sand it down? If you had to sand it down to fit, the the bezel assembly could well be rep. I maybe wrong, but this is how I understand it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did the tc v3. but the bezel teeth looks sharp to me compare to others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

correctime Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 GREAT looking Sub Brother. I love the Flat 4 insert A few side profile shots of the bezel would better help identify it. As STEEL said if the insert had to be sanded, shaved or modded in any way it's not a gen bezel ring. Gen inserts fit the WM9 v3 and TC v4 very well (at least they have on the ones I've owned) but even then they needed some help from a crystal press on the TC v4's. If the watch came to that way and there was no mention of a gen bezel assembly it's likely not a gen assembly. Nice used gen assemblies (without the insert) in good to excellent condition tend to run about 450.00 + these days. I've got 3 or 4 of them for the 16800 and the 16610's and I can't see myself installing one and failing to mention it....the price of the watch when sold would reflect that upgrade.

Erict719 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 waiting for a tc dial to upgrade now. Anyone is it direct fit for dial feet? I know tc dial is for 2824 but mine is 2824-2 Any different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fidhle007 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 It will fit straight on but is it really an upgrade? I was under the impression the TC dial was very similar to the WM9 dials... I have a TC dial in my 16610 now but it's getting swapped for a gen as soon as my movement ring and new handset arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't want this upgrade as extra money, but my dial came bad.. Marker at 6 looks like a noob replacement with weak lume and look super off. another marker have lume over the marker surrounding... it's a big part to get call out .

Erict719 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 A nice looking sub. hi mj mj ! It's good for you to came in. I believe this watch was original from you, I am a few owner after. as I saw picture in your older post, I can tell from the dial that its the same watch. I am wondering if you remember where u first got this watch, since bk shouldn't have QC like this for the dial . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
