Does anyone know what happened to tc

[red series 3]

I really want to buy some of his movement holders and movements, does anyone know how to get in contact with him

[bobandshawn]

Looooong gone. Only used are available now.

yup long gone. 

if you need a movement ring for a TC case, then i think it's worth trying those helenarou 2824-2 to 1570 movement ring (approx $15 USD) - they seem to fit TC cases well (from the last time i tried, but ymmv)

Apparently he went legit https: that's a no-no

Guys TC is no longer in the biz enough said, private communication on the matter of course is just fine.

Unfortunately this is one of the many disadvantages of the internet.  People can disappear out of ones life for all sorts of valid reasons!   Some go out if business, some retire, some even become seriously ill and worse still some even pass away and in this case we have no way of knowing?

 

I myself have lost contact with lovely people I have befriended all over the world from different interests etc.  I know some of these are deceased and there would have been nobody outside their contact to inform me?  An example was an 87 year old I knew from the lung cancer forum and not receiving news in nearly 15 years gives me one conclusion as our last conversation was a very nice and memorable one!

If somebody could provide all the exact dimensions (inside diam, outside dial, thickness, chamfer dimension and position, etc ...) it's still possible the make some on a lathe.

I have no idea what the TC movement holder is meant to do apart from it fitting well in a TC case with the same type of case grooves as the original or perhaps even an original rolex case. 

 

I have only seen it from pictures posted here in the past and it seems to look very similar to the plastic movement holder found on the day date eta 2834-2 ?!?

 

Surely anyone that has a watchmakers lathe and equipment to make such pieces can easily do so if they have an original to stencil on.  The other option would be to use a 3D photocopier and make one from different material if tis were an option!!!
