dan_189 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Posted March 21, 2013 Hey guys, Anyone have pics of a TC 16610 with a genuine 93250? Would like to see what it looks like. I know the TC band is a touch wider also. Cheers!
omgiv Posted March 22, 2013 Report Posted March 22, 2013 I had a genuine 93250 bracelet fitted to my TC case for a while. There is a noticeable gap between the case and the bracelet. I ended up going with TC's latest bracelet (for the end links) and used the 93250 clasp. It was the best solution that I found. Here are a couple of pictures to show the whole 93250 bracelet on the TC case.
Erict719 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 The whole thing looks gen... was it suppose to be gen watch on tc v3 instead??
omgiv Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 Yes. The bezel is genuine. Everything is now except the midcase, caseback, and bracelet (clasp and diver's extension is genuine).
fidhle007 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 Why did you waste all those gen parts on a TC case?
fidhle007 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 A sean case would have been much better for that application.
omgiv Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 The TC case is not without its flaws but the uneven bevels on the Sean case are a deal breaker for me. I have a Sean case as well and mocked it up on both cases but went with the TC case.
fidhle007 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 Which bevels are uneven on yours? I have handled two sean cases (one of which is on my wrist right now) and both have been far superior to the many TC cases I've handled. Not to say the TC isn't a great case, I just think the Sean is that much better!
irolexu Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 I have a Sean's sub with all gen parts minus case and bracelet gotta have the AR to!!
omgiv Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 The bevel on the lower right lug is severely over polished. I have seen a few Sean cases that look exactly like mine, so I don't think I am alone. Maybe these all came out of a bad batch. I don't know. Here is my Sean case fitted with the complete genuine 93250 bracelet.
coolfire Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 Man, that right lug looks nasty! Great build you have btw, mate...
fidhle007 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 sean case is more expensive.. Because it's better... Man, that right lug looks nasty!Great build you have btw, mate... I hate to tell you guys, that's more accurate to the gens I've handled and seen in the wild. I find most rep cases look too "sharp" TC included.
seafoam Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 The TC case is not without its flaws but the uneven bevels on the Sean case are a deal breaker for me. I have a Sean case as well and mocked it up on both cases but went with the TC case. Agreed!!
seafoam Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) Also, from what I've seen and heard, the Sean cases CG's are far too short. That is a deal breaker for me Edited March 24, 2013 by seafoam
fidhle007 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 We must be looking at different Sean cases, the CGs are longer on mine than anything else I've had and better shaped then the TC case I last worked on!
freddk Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 We must be looking at different Sean cases, the CGs are longer on mine than anything else I've had and better shaped then the TC case I last worked on! Can you show us some pictures?
omgiv Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 Here is one of my pictures comparing the TC and Sean case: The TC case is in the left.
