Good Morning,

I have not found TC 16610 referenced on TD web sites.
For example it is not on Toro Bravo or Puretime.

Could someone tell me which TD provides the TC 16610?

Thanks in advance for your answer & have a nice day.

TC is not sold anymore. He has moved on. Only way to get them is via M2M sales.
The internet seems to suggest that TC now sells watches under Ginault brand.

TCs are not made any more and not available new. M2M is your only option. Many are modded with gen parts. They are highly sought after and are higher priced. They sell very fast. Most of us will never be lucky enough to own one.

The JF is a worthy substitute
+1
I have Frankens built using both a TC V6 and JF, and checking them against pics of gens, I think the JF case shape is actually closer to gen (certainly when viewed in profile).

They all come from JF Factory so no matter what TD's listed on their site it will come as SH clone movement.

Good afternoon,

Do you mean that I should not blindly trust what is written in Toro Bravo site and that even if it says SA3135, it is SH3135?

Have a nice day.

I do not trust any info from any of our td's website. If I have a question or want something I start having a conversation via email/whatsapp.

In this instance he / his site is wrong. The JF you want comes with the SH movement only.
Generally do not go on TD's sites - write to them direct with the watch you want - they will get it for you.

I realize that it could be also a mistake on my part.
The sub that I have referenced is not 16610. It is the 16610 LN.
Could this be the reason for having SA3135 instead of SH3135?

Have a nice day.

No.

16610 is the model.

LN - Lunette Nero = Black bezel
LV - Lunette Verde = Green bezel

The watch you want - which is the best alternative to the TC available is the one I sent you the link to.
Send that link to your TD.

There is nothing more anyone can do to help you.

As you pointed out I missed this point. Sorry for not having double searched for that.
But what is shown on trb web site is all the more wrong as it looks like a 116610 claps.

I agree more and more with you: "do not trust any info from any of our td's website".

Have a nice day.
