TC Elabore 2824 Yacht Master 16622 First Look

[kdo2milger]

Actually, what I see in my watch is what is in this photo. On the 'gen', the dial and bezel insert are the same material (95 Pt), but look to be of differing materials in the photo. It is very obviously 'brown' when I go out into the sun. I doubt the xstal would make a difference. The dial was extensively reviewed by a German watchsmith on this forum and that was his conclusion as well. If I recall, the photographic comparison was between the first TC dial, the Elabore TC dial, early GEN, and later GEN. A good read.

I would love to read it, do recall the threads title

I love mine and am very careful when I occasionally wear it. But alas, it is a 'scratch magnet'. Particularly on the 12 o'clock portion of the polished bracelet center links. I have no idea what I scratch it on. I'm careful as shite. Other than the dial color being just slightly 'brown' as compared to 'gen'...I truly enjoy this watch, and the build quality is second to none.

Thats sounds like a lot of stress! If you ever want to let go, I'd be MORE than willing to take it off your hands :biggrin-new:

how much would a gen bracelet for this cost? i have one of these and was curious but couldnt really find a solid answer

The German participant's name/user ID is 'Zocker' I believe.

"What we see directly is the different structure.
The structure under the Microscope looks like sand paper really really rough.
The Platinum Color of the KH is also more Brownish in the most Angles...
Same as on the older TC v1 Dial."

These fit the 16622?? I was under the impression it was different than the regular subs

Is there a good fix for the soft bezel click?

Does anyone know if TC is still making these and if so, how can he be contacted? The blog is down and so are all his dealer sections on the rep fora.

TC is still making them, as I have 2 on order. He isn't taking any orders at the moment, however he should be coming back in a few months.

Hi there
I am fortunate to have one of TC Yachtmaster..
However, I guess I was too adventurous and worn it for a biking trip.

It was only my 2nd time wearing it and one of the rivet went missing

Anyone have any idea where to get a spare? Or whats the dimensions of the rivet?

Hard to see for me, but are you talking about the rivet on the clasp? If so, I would just order a newer style clasp from the GMT2, as it is a direct fit.

Thanks for the reply and apology for the unclear message. I have reattached a photo with the missing rivet area circled in red

Haha I think a couple of more people would be really happy to get their hands on the TC 16622. Is there any news that he will return again?
