Best 16610 midcase for gen bracelet that is compatible with TC components

[phwtan]

I've got a gen 93250 bracelet that is getting restored that I intend on installing onto a TC v6.

However as y'all are probably aware, the lugs aren't the most precise and can vary between 20.10mm and 20.15mm, which can make the SEL fit slightly loose.

Is there a case out there that will precisely accomodate a gen bracelet, but also has gen construction and will accept TC bezel assembly, TC backcase, TC 2824 or yuki 3135 movement, TC KH dial, crown, gen crystal, etc?

Try it first and see if it fits to your TC case.

From memory genuine bracelet didn't fit BK case in the past without mod but I have yet to try on TC case

A Sean case Would accept it beautiful Like my own

[phwtan]

Sean case...is it possible to source them new?

If so, from where/who?

Very good fit with the SEL with your watch?

[marrickvilleboy]

No longer available

Look out for m2m trades

Yeah sadly no longer in production but they were The Best there was my gen LV and my Sean build is so alike i Would bet you couldnt tell me which one is which

And The sel is totally tight as Per gen but using a TC mix of a bracelet now since The gen bracelet is just a Waste of money compared to The Best mix of tc

[phwtan]

Were the CGs on the Sean case as good, or better than the TC?

[marrickvilleboy]

There is a point where the costs of getting all of these parts will be unjustifiable compared to gen.

I bought a almost mint condition rolex sub 16610 for $4.3K

Btw the time you get all of these parts and movement plus bracelet, you are running close to $2K but still a rep

[phwtan]

4.3k...AUD? Great deal!

They tend to be about 3.9 to 4.2k GBP in London!

Where did you source yours?

[phwtan]

Agree with you though...there comes a point where it becomes illogical.

90% accuracy (or more with TC sub) can be achieved for $USD545 + postage and the reminding 10% ( or less) can cost up to USD 3000 if replacing with gen movt, insert, crystal, bracelet, crown, click spring, etc
