Thank you guys.
Do you think that the TC seadweller dial is a big improvement?
As I don't have expert eyes I can not spot the flaws. But once i see one i'm sure it will bother me. Once you see it you will always do.

As long as your BP dial has good lume and the color of markers and hands match each other there is no need to spend extra money for a TC dial. The print on BP and TC SD dial is quite the same.

It is a great watch OTB. Worst part is the bracelet, at least in my case, it is quite difficult to open the clasp.
I guess a TC bracelet will fix that.

Unfortunately all BP SD are like this from many years ago, they never updated it.


Although the BP may loosen up with use.

Unfortunately this can not happen buddy only with use it. I have tried to rework the stock BP clasp but you can not fix it because the last link is too close to closing of the clasp

BP dial it's good as fonts and print. The only flaw you might have is the poor application in the index. The dial BP are famous for being called "moon craters" for its index.

If you're lucky you'll get a dial BP without this defect (my last SD BP does not have this defect, my previous one yes).

I compared many times the TC dial and BP.

TC dial is an inexpensive dial beacuse it isn't a KH dial with this high quality.

It has the dial indexes slightly larger than BP and it must be reworked a little bit on its profile to be mounted.

In my mod i decided to hold BP stock, because the TC is not a real upgrade imho. The real update is the hand set imho.

Thank you very much.
I will get the bracelet (TC 93250 V6), the TC DWO V4 (don´t really know if it is an improvement, but it is not a lot of money) and the V3 hands.
With the Gen Insert and Crown that i already have I think i will have a nice build.

Thank you all for this great thread.

as M_hall said this will be a perfect build. You check if your lume is applied well on the dial indexes, so you can evaluate whether or not to purchase the TC

Why? I do love your 1680 though, I know you like it too

Sent from the RWI mobile app

Not getting wrist time. It was more of a mission it seems. I do love it.
Now that it is winter, I may wear it more due to the compact size. Things may change.

To be honest, I have been wearing an old noob Hulk. 150.00 watch. Haha.
1680 sits, 1675 sits, 16710 sits, 16610.....
Really want a 1680 white with a nice dial and hands. I will never sell my red though.

Just arrived ... OOTB

Good initial impressions. The bracelet is the worst part in my opinion, but the TC bracelet can improve it!
