TM Factory 16610, 16610LV new release

[Reaps]

But what the fuck he meands with "Do you even water ghost"?

Its a 5 Digit reference, they dont have ceramic inlay and dont have glidelock system.
But Factory tells their watch have ceramic inlay and glidelock. Thats why I am confused

Like I said I think they copied 116x and 126x submariner marketing and slapped it on this. I take all rep marketing with a grain of salt they all lie or exaggerate heavily like saying 7750 is clone movement

OK, I understand now. Thanks

I mean technically isn’t a 5 digit water ghost with ceramic and a glide lock (and milsub hands) a Ginault

Why BP instead of RAF?

Comparing the two, the BP just made more sense to me. It's not perfect, but great ootb. The ARF/RAF had QC all over the place, and by the time the important parts are replaced with gen, the total cost is close enough that going gen isn't too far out of reach.

Have my eye out for a gen 16610, but a $300 rep of a $7000 watch made more sense to me than a $3000 franken of a $7000 watch by the time a dial, hands, and bezel assembly was sorted out.

It's obvious they copied a 116x or 126x description and pasted it on. Rep marketing is always taken with a grain of salt.

So the product is copied from a swiss company, while the marketing is copied from a chinese company, that make sense I guess...
is TM known for making quality replicas?

First I've heard of them. Hope I'm wrong but I bet it'll just be the same parts from ARF/RAF/JF we've seen put together and resold.

This is true, if these TM’s are gen spec you could possibly look at a multitude of builds, 16800 and 16610 tritium dials aren’t too pricey and would make for an excellent neo vintage daily.

I also have old BP, new BP, JF, ARF, TC and 16610.

I am very interested to know how good this TM is.
It is good to see the factory entering the 5 digit market.

I look forward to more information in the future.

Wonder if this one will have lug holes?

Not likely. I drill my own though

I was going for an ‘82 year

Did someone say 82 model year..?

Yup! Love this model so much

Ah ok: that would make sense... In this case let's hope they do good QC and put a fair price on them...

Thats ok for the right price, if they do it with a VR/VS movement instead of the SHs we find in the ARF i will be happy.

So TM stands for "Thomas Manufacturer" ? ^^

Knocked down the gloss on the insert a little. Hopefully I’ll get a nice natural fade to it

 

[Geonor]

I have a black water ghost from BP and a green water ghost from RAF. Maybe if these are good I'll get another and make one into a 14060.

Nice.

What do the experts say about it? Especially regarding case shape.

 

[bowtiefanatc]

From the limited pics…..looks exactly like I thought. Won’t be able to tell anything until it’s in hand.

No glidelock, normal insert. Same pricing. Likely same parts.
