rolojack Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 TCs are probably the best 16610s made outside Switzerland... Now: with a better crown, engravings and a rebuffing of the sides how good does it get ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XM195 Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Wow, really sharp and well made engraving between lugs. Do they have LV version too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sogeha Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 TC 16610LV models do come up on M2M sales. However they are no longer available new and didn’t originally come with engraving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanw Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 The chamfering of the sides looks great ! My TC chamfering was down by PBDad, who did yours ? Also who did the engraving ? It's very well made. I'm getting a gen crown and tube because stock TC sucks.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the engravings the final brushing is done. Only that way will you have that result ! So it's a three step work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always had the question , is the gen rolex caliber individually engraved with a serial number and if so is this number the same one engraved between the lugs ?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only get related after the papers are issued. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
