Tonyyammine Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Went home today and i did not expect to see this. The best packaging. Some of our sellers and TDs could take a lesson from tcunder the bubble very nice. with its big brother. Really like this watch on my wrist. Might change the crown to a gen. The insert is awesome. Very happy with this.
dbane883 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Congrats!. Looks great. Howz the bracelet?
SSTEEL Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 The exact same as I'm getting, but with cyclops.
Mike on a bike Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Nice Tony! Mine due in any day but as w/ steel cyclops one. Tony how do you find bracelet there as been some talk on this version?
Tonyyammine Posted October 28, 2013 Author Report Posted October 28, 2013 Mike do u know what the members were saying about the bracelet. I can't tell any difference.
Morris133 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Mike do u know what the members were saying about the bracelet. I can't tell any difference. Evidently TC is shipping his current Subs with the V4 bracelet. Supposed to be a better clasp then the V3 but similar finish on all the links. All made by a different bracelet maker. Would love to see a review. Enjoy, The TC sub is fantastic.
Camaro Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Great looking watch, with the red second hand and no cyclops
Tonyyammine Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 Ok i just noticed the bracelet. The clasp crown is awesome. The links are a little stiff. Maybe when i do my sonic clean on it the bracelet will be better,if not ill switch braceletes. I have a few v3s. But the clasp crown is a keeper.
aeromatic Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Nice indeed ! i have ordered one of those red seconds hand to put on a 6538 style build thought it would look cool with a matt dial !!!!
panerai153 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Mighty nice!!! Red seconds really sets it off.
Erict719 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Is the print on the new dial better ?? It look more crisp and eye catch.. Maybe it's the pic
eduardor Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Awsome tony. How are the CG's, i saw in a thread that TC's new offerings had different cg's and inaccuarte than previos ones. Any true? Perhaps an unlucky buyer?
jtiis Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 The print on the Caddell is definitely whiter and under the loupe the print is a tad thicker (which could theoretically make it appear whiter). But everything about the print (as with the original TC dials) is crisp and well defined. Definitely like the new dial more though. And that's saying a lot considering how good his original dials were/are.
Tonyyammine Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 The reason why he did this sub is because he got a batch of the special gen like dials. If you go on his blog he goes into detail about this. As for the crown gaurds i didnt notice but ill compare it to my bk 16610 if it looks different ill post some pics.
Mike on a bike Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Sorry Tony missed this "Mike do u know what the members were saying about the bracelet. I can't tell any difference." Something about links not bending like older one ,the feeling was new clasp (as you stated great) w old bracelet best combo.
clem2192 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Lovely - I really do like the red second hand however a Sub without a cyclops just doesnt do it for me. New dial looks pretty good too!
ArkoN Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Awsome tony. How are the CG's, i saw in a thread that TC's new offerings had different cg's and inaccuarte than previos ones. Any true? Perhaps an unlucky buyer? Long story made short. That is NOT the case. It was ONE Sub that was even a BK Sub and not a TC with different CG`s. But all other new Caddells and TC`s have the same case and the same CG`s that are fine. For the bracelet Story have a look here: http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/163930-tc-sub-type-5-bracelet-issue/#entry1278863
Mike on a bike Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Thanks arkon , yes I read your post while back but could not remember which site.
Erict719 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 The new bracelet is not as well made as old v3
Ephry73 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Tony it looks great! That is the one I am going for. I may have the case lugs engraved later on with some type of TC serial.
Nightwatch Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Congrats on this choice and watch. Thx for the pics. Looks beautiful and clean with the inverted dial and red seconds hand, without the Cyclops covering minutes and second hands. Just ordered exactly this one yesterday, a long wait begins..... How does the movement feel compared to Asian Eta? That would be interesting. Very, very nice, wear it well.
Tonyyammine Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Posted October 31, 2013 I dont own any asian movement watches but i compare it to my bk with its 2824 swiss and its really good.
