Erict719 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 I wish to know how the KH dial vs gen is Please if anyone have vs pic side by side
live1 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 i THINK gen dials have a bright white marker at every hour on the dial.and tc dials dont.ive looked at so many gen dials they all seem to have the white markers.but every tc dial ive seen dosent.
Erict719 Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Posted December 30, 2013 But as tc say KH have gen like c1 lume
live1 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 im not talking about the lume im talking abythe minute dashes around the dial
garyb Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) im not talking about the lume im talking abythe minute dashes around the dial Yes they do, that is the only tell that I can find on a KH dial, kind of an easy one to see unfortunately.(the 5 minute ticks are brighter then the 4 ticks I between them on a gen) Edited December 30, 2013 by Garyb
live1 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) tc dials are emulating a 2008 mserial dial.but the tc sub is ment to emulate a 2002 y serial watch.but normal people whould never know this so don't really matter kh dial look more gen than his standard dials because of the thikness of the marker rings Edited December 30, 2013 by live1
Mike on a bike Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 Here is my V6 in today quick shots guys still ice cold from mailbox ! Will have to set up light box for better shots.
garyb Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 I wish to know how the KH dial vs gen is Please if anyone have vs pic side by side Would really need both watches shot in the exact lighting conditions and the white balance set the same(correct). Most of the photos we see(mine included) have the white balance all over the place. Some guys on these forums get it correct and I can see when a photo was shot by someone who knows what he is doing weather a pro or a very good enthusiast photographer. I'm just too lazy these days, lol.
Mike on a bike Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 I stink at it but at least you can get an idea .
garyb Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 I stink at it but at least you can get an idea . Wasn't knocking your pics bro, the only bad pic of a watch is no pic! I was referring to side by side comparison shots if someone was to privilege us with them.
garyb Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 tc dials are emulating a 2008 mserial dial.but the tc sub is ment to emulate a 2002 y serial watch.but normal people whould never know this so don't really matter kh dial look more gen than his standard dials because of the thikness of the marker rings May I ask what the differences are between an M dial and a Y dial are?
Mike on a bike Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 Gary I think URkuk is working on some against a Wm9 V2 . (much better than me!)
indywatchguy Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 Nice Mike! Is the Caddell Vintage close to gen?
Mike on a bike Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 Indy have not had time to do a detailed comparision,looking pretty good on first inspection.
live1 Posted December 31, 2013 Report Posted December 31, 2013 Nice Mike! Is the Caddell Vintage close to gen?the shape is totally wrong but the fonts are great and the pearl is great.i would say a gen insert is needed but the caddel will keep you going wilst saving for the gen insert
indywatchguy Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 Thanks Mike and Live. Mine is on order. I'll go gen on insert. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
alligoat Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 Here's an early Y serial to compare with Mike's V6- the white ticks at the 5 minute marks are brighter and more pronouncedY serial is around 2003 when they switched to the 16610 T case, but the dials didn't change. Swiss Made dials started around 2000.Here's an M serial courtesy of ebay5 minute marks seem lighter, but it could be the pic...
Erict719 Posted January 1, 2014 Author Report Posted January 1, 2014 my tc dial have whiter hour marker, also wider lume surrounded at 6,9,12. I will try to post. A pic But, I can't tell u guys which version it is, since its not KH , or v5 or others. Janeto got it for me from tc, and it looks different from the others, however I do believe kH is flatter lume
live1 Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 ive never seen a tc with gen like white hour dashes on the dial as of yet.please post a clear pic
garyb Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 See how shallow the bezel cuts are in the Y, just like a TC. During the 2003 transition I believe the Y also came with out lug holes and had a pointy 4, am I correct?
live1 Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 tc is emulating the late y serial without lug holes like i said earlier
Erict719 Posted January 1, 2014 Author Report Posted January 1, 2014 I never seen anyone with the same tc dial as me yet too. Lol so I can't tell what version mine is
live1 Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 post pics eric of the dial so we can see what u mean
alligoat Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 Here you go Garyb, a Y serial w/o lugholes and the pointy 4 insert- a little later than the early Y serial w/ lugholes aboveAll of this is around 2003
garyb Posted January 2, 2014 Report Posted January 2, 2014 tc is emulating the late y serial without lug holes like i said earlier Sorry, missed your post.
