dusk Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) A few very quick camera phone snaps of the unboxing of my new TC 16610 LV that arrived to work this morning. Very happy with the watch indeed. Just dashing out to a meeting so crappy pics will have to do for now.. Will take a detailed look tonight (excuse the excited finger prints! ) -dusk- Edited February 9, 2015 by dusk 1

dusk Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Posted February 9, 2015 has the bezel teeth been updated as well? looks amazeballs Yes they have the tooling marks like gen if you look close. The date wheel text is raised/ embossed it looks really fantastic. I may have a play with my macro lens later
martijnp Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 What a stunning piece mate! Wear her well 1
droptopman Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 Looks awesome. Insert looks good. Mine came last week but is at the watchsmith getting some gen goodies an an Eta. Sent from my droptop using telepathy. 2
Boxsash Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 That looks great, I didn't know that TC was making the LV again. The bezel teeth look deeper than the TC 16610 V5 I had last year. Thats a great improvement if they are. The TC watch is so gen like, a really great rep. Enjoy and good health! 1

Sent from my droptop using telepathy. I have a gen xtal to go on with AR and LEC (I know not true to year but I just love AR) I will get it waterproofed too i think Edited February 9, 2015 by dusk

You see many gens this style with the AR crystal. Hoping it makes a difference on the date view. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.
irolexu Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Wow! I just bought a gen V series and seriously besides mine being bezel engraved there is nothing to complain about here. Even the insert looks spot on. Congrats on such a nice piece. I may see if TC can get me a green one to preserve my gen LV insert. Good buy
dusk Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Posted February 10, 2015 I am so in love with this watch I really can't find anything I would change on it. It wears so well on the wrist and is as comfortable as slipping on an old suit. I resized to perfection last night and even slept with it on. Bezel insert to my eyes is imdestinguishable from gen as is the new dial and date wheel and we all know how spot on the case and bracelet is. The submariner Kermit was and still is my firm holy grail timepiece, TC you are the man!

Even though its been massively improved lately... its still not quite gen... in my opinion... But its an amazing watch as a whole!
Bc1221 Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 damn. that looks great! i never really was a big fan of the maxi-dial or the fat min hand but every time i see one of these posted, it makes me want one even more.... congrats
alterego Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 The watch looks great, onsiderincg you re posting some "crappy pics."
watcher Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Very sweet He updated the bezel sometime last year and makes a big difference.
