T•a•c•t•i•c•o TC.3 UPDATE

By TLex Crepas have made a few changes to their forthcoming flieger watch, the the TC.3 that they would like you to know about.



Here are the changes . . .

- All gloss paint has been changed to matte
- The blue color has been toned down so that it is now closer to blue/grey
- The blue paint on the seconds pointer has now been changed to BGW9 lume.



When Crepas designed the TC.3 family of watches, they wanted a pilot-style watch of the type that any professional diver would like to own. For this type of watch, its divers features are really excellent, better than some so-called 'true divers'!



The TC.3 has been dubbed a 'poor man's Bremont' by some, and in fact Crepas are quite proud of this compliment. I can see some B&R influences, myself. Nevertheless it's another cracking model from Crepas! Please, see below for key features and measurements of the TC.3
