I feel sorry for the ones that were taken in so easily by a salesman. Hopefully JF will make some drastic improvements so people can wear the watch.

I totally agree with Trasher in the thread hes mentioning alot of people where talking about that JF was as TC killer etc... based on what? TC has a long history of a great watch.

Oh this is so perfect and true where are all the JF fans now...Disappeared into the bushes to email Angus for a new Bracelet and retention ring which they won't get until the Piece fails.

I still stand by statement that the pearl ring is better than the TC ;)

yup JF insert is extremely close. Can't spot a difference from the front. Pic: gen on top

TC LV V6. Is it just me or is the sel on the V7 more recessed? I have a V7 coming in next week from TC, so I'll compare then.

So my Grail watch is a 16610LV with an LN insert.

Gen insert at the ready.

Just love the larger indices and hands of a maxi dial in a 5 digit case but prefer a black insert.

Not correct of course but correct is for spelling bees and mathematics exams and watches are for the owners pleasure BUT that green insert is nice so haven't done the swap just yet.

Hi guys, so I received my TC V7 LV extreme yesterday, and the bezel has a little bit of play, not from left to right (the way you turn the bezel), its when I press on the bezel at different points, it sorta moves up and down slightly.

So I dismantled the whole bezel assembly and realized that it's filled with grease, no biggy, I cleaned that all up, and I removed the bezel assembly from my gen sub k series, swapped the assembly over to TC's, only to realize that it's really really tight, to the point where I have difficulty turning the bezel.

Does anyone else have this issue? So am I right to say that The extreme does not accept the gen bezel assembly?

Here is my v7 with gen bezel ring on stock retainer. I was surprised that it did fit perfect because the older TCs required the use of gen retainer if you were going to use gen bezel. But it fit great on mine and spins exactly like my gen sub. I'm thinking maybe you pressed down the retainer to much so it's getting hung up? There should be a small gap so the bezel has room to spin.

Thanks for the input, I don't think I pressed on the retainer too hard, maybe the retainer ring is slightly larger than the gen one, I tried fitting my tc bezel on my gen sub and it's also slightly loose and has a little bit of play, just like on the tc, maybe I should get a gen retainer to try it out.

Or you could sand the tC one down a hair. We're talking fraction on a MM here.
