Max_JCW Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I would buy a pair of gen hands as well. Ssteel can make them fit on Eta movements Gesendet von meinem iPhone mit Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netniet Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Nothing beats a gen dial, but those are not cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Gen crystal and insert is already awesome but gen dial and hands brings it to another level! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aero_Dave Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Gen crystal and insert is already awesome but gen dial and hands brings it to another level!And gen crown, tube, date wheel....

How could I forget about that but noob crown is very good but on case you go that far it would be a bummer if you didn't use gen tune/crown..but for gen dwo yuki or gen movement is necessary, right? Tc dwo 4 should do the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezio Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Thanks guys as it looks atm im in 1073 euro with insert crystal and the watch its self and some service and etc so might just have to stop there for now But v3 is ceramic insert Would it not match with a normal insert ?? Would that be a Big tell not sure if the v3 can come in a normal insert with a gen rolex ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezio Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 And is it better to use the money and time on a tc V6 instead ?? Cant decide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 And is it better to use the money and time on a tc V6 instead ?? Cant decide When I started the rep game I only wanted the 116610 ceramic rollie (btw a aluminium insert won't fit and is a huuuuuuge tell). But for me the 16610 is a pure classic and due to slimmee lugs more estetically in my eyes. Moreover, tc v6 with v5 bracelet and kh dial is a pure piece of quality! Add gen insert, gen crystal and crown and you have a perfect watch for around 1000euro. Further, all this mods you can do on your own since its pretty easy. I would go for a franken tc v6 and wait for the v4 since v3 is already a great otb rep and v4 must be better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a good plan and gen insert and crystal can be found quite easily. Personall, I like the superclone movement used by tc. I would leave it as it is and go for a swiss eta when it breaks. Rather spend the money for crystal, insert and crown since tc movement is very reliable unsless you are very unlucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
