The 16613 Gang - Show off your 16613 TT thread!

[QueTip]

TC V6 midcase lightly aged and lug holes drilled by jmb
TC caseback and gasket
Y3135 serviced by misiekped with gen parts (hour and minute wheels and 1 or 2 others that I forget right now)
Gen date wheel
WM9 retaining ring shaved for the TC case by Rudy40
TC crystal and gasket
WSO friction ring, click spring
WSO 18k bezel ring
Gen vintage 16613 bezel insert from bronica in OZ
Gen 16613 champagne serti dial (T<25)
Gen gold 3135 hands
Gen 7030 tube and seals
Gen 18k 703 crown
Gen 93153 bracelet

The whole thing was assembled by Mike

I'll try to get some better pictures when I have a moment. It has been a grail for me for a long time and I am thrilled to finally have it on my wrist.

My wife had a fit when she found out how much I paid for the dial. It's a good thing she doesn't know how much the whole thing cost.

Really Nice man! Loving it.

How does the wso bezel ring color match all the gen gold parts? Looks spot on in the pic.

I've experienced different quality from WSO. I've seen stuff that is lighter in gold tone than gen and stuff that is pretty bang on. Cannot be compared to ST though imho.

I would echo what QueTip said. I think the bezel is slightly brighter in color than the Gen parts but is not really noticeable to the naked eye. The WSO date wheel however was a big disappointment. Some of the dates were slightly high in the date window and some were unacceptably low. Also, the date didn't always flip over as designed. Mike changed it out with a gen date wheel and all those problems disappeared. Now ever date is perfectly centered.
