northantsrich 1 Posted June 29, 2016 Hi Guys, I have two TC v6 subs. The gasket that TC is using makes the bezel assembly of the watch fit slightly above the watch case. On a gen sub the bezel assembly is almost flush with the watch case. Have any of you also found this. If so have you got a fix? I am thinking of trying to get two gen Rolex 16610 gaskets to solve this issue. Absolutely awesome rep other than this issue.

Turbo350z 0 Posted June 29, 2016 You are correct, TCs gasket is too big. Gen uses .8mm gasket. TCs is around 1.2mm. Members have solved this issue 2 ways.. First would be use gen .8 gasket. If no luck finding that, I have used a case back gasket which is a little smaller in diameter then the retainer gasket. You have to stretch it a little bit to get it to fit into the groove. Stretching it thins it out a bit and gives you a thinner gasket! Hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phwtan 0 Posted December 14, 2016 Where can I buy these gaskets? And what diameter is the gasket? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuckaDiesel 0 Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) I know this is old tread but this does not diminish WR right? I was driving myself crazy putting retainer back on and could not get it all the way flush but figured it has to be due to the thickness of the oring which was pretty chunky. Other than bezel sitting high this should not affect water resistance right? Edited October 17, 2017 by DuckaDiesel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically he could not get one that was the gen sizing (he confirmed it to me ages ago in an email). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
