No lug engravings, tc made sure of this. Can you imagine if the big guys at rollie come down hard on this because of the lug engravings people gonna sell it off as gen. Theres a sucker born every minute. Its the betterment of this hobby of ours.

Because Rolex would only intervene on the day TC starts engraving his cases... LOL

All you have to do is turn the crown , move the hands, wind it or look at the movement to know its not genuine.

Has anyone here tried disassembling the bezel assembly to sort out the soft click yet?

[MENTION=34463]Om3ga_guy[/MENTION] sorting the soft bezel click was the first thing i was hoping to work on. although when i received my package from TC taiwan last week the cardboard envelope seal was sealed to the inside of the envelope instead of the outside therefore it wasnt closed so the watch never made it to me. still havnt heard from TC as to a solution. if i end up with a watch ill do my best to solve the soft click issue and post a thread on it.

Sucks to hear about your packaging mate.

I plan on looking at the issue as well. Will keep you posted from my end when the YM gets in.

I would hope someone with some skill gets into this and posts a tutorial here

I just put a few dabs of epoxy down and let things sit for about 48 hours. It really tightened things up. Feels gen now
