Yeah, TC can deliver with the unmounted insert packed on the side.

This new Crystal is Mind Numbingly Good. Screw Genuine this is fantastic.

Yes, but is it easier to just mount a gen insert when there is no insert installed?

I can't wait to pick up one of these pieces! I know TC is a busy man, emailed him a few days ago just waiting on availability of the TC V6. Anyone know if the email on his blog is still active? Sent him a message there to place an order.

I have removed the friction rings from both of my TC's. The bezel was SUPER tight with them on. And they are still plenty secure without them.

I always pop the bezel with a case knife, just need to be careful.

The bezel on mine was decent when I got it, it's super smooth now though with the gen tension washer and click spring.

My bezel is a bit loose, I had BK tighten it and polish the bezel when he changed it to a genuine insert and crown. But it still has to much free play!

TC's have bracelet. No bracelet = gen 2003 16610. The pictures with only 2 watches is comparing the gen to the V6 TC

















TC Clasp comparison from left to right, v2, v3, v4, v5







My 16610 obsession - from left to right - Earlier TC with big crown AR crystal, then WM9 LV with TC's new LN insert, new TC LV in the middle, TC V6, Gen 16610

TC was going to send me a extra LN insert and yachtmaster seconds hand to make up for the Crown fail on my V6 but I asked for the new Crystal for my LN instead when my LV ships out, How cool is that. I hardly need an extra LN insert since my V6 has a genuine insert and I'm over the yachtmaster hand idea so the new Crystal seems like a good addition to my V6. TC is WAY COOL.. No update on the LV inserts... Oh well

My wife saw the photo on my phone and said "Jesus, how many rolexes do you have?!"

I don't think she notices the subtle differences between the v3 and v5 clasp or a TC v6 LN and a gen. Haha. I had to assure her they were not all real
