- Start date
total cost of parts alone is about 950
No, it is wrong but I am told that the rolex service center is swapping new crystals with AR when servicing (if needed) so it does not matter and AR is awesome (it only affects the date window) - IMO it makes the sub more gen, rep crystals can look really good, but no rep crystal looks this good
The teeth are a bit deeper than tc, and varies around the bezel too, close enough I guess
Thanks for all the comments fellas
FAIL!
No just joking, seriously, that thing looks 100% gen. Excellent execution on the mods and assembly.
Congrats !

It is indeed awesome!!
Only geeks like us in here should walk into these great projects...
In real life you cannot be called out even if you wear a noob sub..
Will upload some pics of my wm9 V3..It is indeed relly good ...
I am thinking of fitting a whole gen bezel assembly but i don't believe that around 300eur is normal money for just a bezel..Can buy the Sean case with that money and have something close enouph..
Well, in all honesty, the rehaut shaving took a while, I understand you can get it shaved from TC, but I wanted something between the lugs. Otherwise, install is not too bad, I would think you could always get sneed or watchguyusa to do a similar build for not too much money.
I just sold the sean case. I contemplated doing it......2-3 issues arise. 1) movement ring is not included....well my buddy fatmatt fabricates them - problem solved - Gio - hit me up when you need one. Also the TC ring can be sanded a tad to fit in there. The sean case tolerances are amazing.
2) The tc wm9 tw noob dials ALL need to be sanded as it only fits gen dial - I can do it but it adds a level of complexity. Now if you use a gen dial, issue solved.
3) TC strap needs a tad bit of sanding on the bottom of the SEL to perfect the fit. The sean strap is so so. It does have a better SEL fit btw compared to this, but good enough is ......well good enough.
I think sean case is an amazing case and deserves a gen dial and the clone 3135 when improved. That would be an amazing build....DCpark has one in the pipeline. Sean case is so close.....
Yes, I highly recommend it. I must be honest, I have had my doubts on a gen crystal. I mean a clark is soo close. Even the TC crystals are very good, I just think the stock TC crystal has a cyclops that distorts but I can always swap that with a noob cyclops and fix the issue. But the AR effect a fawking badass, love it.
Looks great!!
My is having the same crystal and gen insert + crown

I think this is the best mass produced case / sub. I must admit when BK assembles his sub, it is a better final product compared to what TC sends you. After doing all that is needed to install everything get it all lined up, I appeciate BKs work that much work.
Giobo
that LV looks fantastic. I think that is the recent TC offering and that particular combo from TC is an amazing value. That is a v3 right ? The crown "hiding" is what hints towards that.
Wow, I expect a few gen parts on that sub.....do tell tony

It is a wm9 v3.The only gen part is a gen crown.But the TC bracelet...I had the TC but gave it to my brother and sold the spare parts..
I think they are like old and new MBW..The TC is as good as wm9 in the first glance but the old wm9 one has something in the quality and finish that makes it "different"..Do i sound to geek??Sorry ...
rsh it IS F"N MAGIC! Altho, NO suprize comming from you, Bro! CONGRATS! I hope someone hooks you up with a NOOB crystal SOON!
