TC V6 bezel and insert upgrade.

[rvlife]

My TC V6 Gen bezel and insert upgrade does the difference justify the 600.00 cost. both were bnib.

On the second picture I can see the finer detail on the bezel notches, much cleaner and sharper on the gen, on saying that , if you are not happy send them to me for my TC

Did the bezel come with the click spring, I changed my TC to a gen spring and the bezel is smother and click is superb.

No it did not come however I sourced one to get the Gen like click.

I'm am happy. It has gen bezel, insert, crown and crystal now all I need is a gen 93250 clasp and I'm done with it.

rvlife if you get gen clasp, can I buy your TC one, mine is broken.

I wouldn’t put a gen bezel assembly on a TC.

12-17years old gen bezels that have been polished many times in their life, look less “gen” than TC

OP says bezel was BNIB , so there is no polishing been done.

Only you know man. Both look beautiful to me. (Your crystal looks fantastic too!)

 

[rvlife]

Thank you. I am happy with the upgrade.

I wouldn't have made this upgrade purely for financial reasons. But other than that, the genuine bezel looks better, no doubt. And because the edges are more precise and pronounced, it probably also feels better in handling. When it comes to the insert, the upgrade is definitely worth it. The genuine pearl is simply in a different league.

By the way, I'm surprised how close the bezel on your V6 comes to the original. Especially since the V7X bezel has much more pronounced scallops. I'm a little confused right now.

Here's my V7X for comparison:

Could you please upload a photo of your gen bezel TC with the same perspective as the above V6 Kermit? Thanks a lot!
