I seem to remember that also last summer there was a thread about it, triggered or involving Victoria (Vicky, where are you?).

Try a search about it, maybe you can find some suggestions.

I happened to do the same just a few days ago.

The Zigmeister you are our hero.

Unfortunately my crown was a gold plated one. I am afraid I am fu**ed.

Congrats, wear it well!

And thanks for the detailed report. Nice to know of a new good performance by Tony.

Is the swan neck the dagger type?

Would you mind to post a few shots? Of the movement back especially?

Will this also apply to his titanium cases? I have just bought the 177H

Take your digital caliper out and measure your crystal diameter.

If it is 35.5mm (and chances are 99% it is), DSN crystal will fit.

Apologies for not mentioning you avitt, it seems I missed your original thread.

Good to know!

Arrrrgh, (in alphabetical order): ajoesmith (Oz), kye_lin (Asia), rolli (EU), swdivad (Oz).

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.

I see that the back layer is black painted on the inner side... I wonder why...

It is clear you are not a newbie, Watch'nRoll. Welcome back to your old hobby!

As the fellows already said, it is a 090.

This model got quite low in price since its first release -- easy to find @ about 100 USD these days. If you are going to sell it with both the strap and the bracelet, 150-160 USD might be a fair price. If the caseback is the correct one, and/or the strap is good quality, you might go up to 180 USD.

If you post a shot of the caseback, and if you add a few details about the strap, I might be more specific.

Would you live next door to a nuclear power plant? How about putting it near your kids' school?

Yes, I would (no kids here, sorry -- as I already told).

BTW, "your" country put lots of nuclear plants exactly at the border of my country -- so this is sort of an academic debate.

Please no misunderstanding, I have nothing against your country*, and especially nothing against you. I just adressed your questions.

*It clearly showed how stupid we are here in my country.

Nuclear isn't a 100% safe solution and there's no way to adequately deal with the waste. It may just be our best solution, but it's so very, very far from ideal.

I absolutely agree. I did not want to suggest it is the ideal solution. But it was a better solution than petroleum along 50 years to search on more efficient "clean" energies.

Now, all that time got wasted in my country.

Details needed.

Which Luminor model?

Which movement?

Which dealer?

In my country, many years ago, we had a public consultation on nuclear energy.

Being the assbrains that we actually are, and letting us be driven by money cartels and assbrains like the so-called local "Greens" (just a bunch of ignorants who are using fear and ignorance to drive people), the majority voted against nuclear.

So resigning our lives and wallets in the hands of gas companies and their Arabian friends -- Should I rather say Arabians and their gas friends?

My country is a very small one, but there is no way out at world level as well. "They" (yes, a bit paranoical here) already bought everything and infiltrated everywhere. Now I am glad I have no children. Live is going to be hard. Everything is ok. Stupidity has to be punished.

Thanks SSS. That's what I needed to know.

You are welcome.

BTW, it costs 75 USD. You may find it on the 4th (oldest) DSN page.

AFAIK, DSN cystals fit 90% of standard rep cases -- all those accepting [standard] 35.5mm diameter crystals.

Great watch! I too love that PVD.

Is that the original crown the EL watch came with? It looks excellent, IMHO.

One only remark: is it just the pic, or did you actually perform no mod on the DW+cyclops ensemble?

Thanks!

SS radiomir: 6

RG radiomir: 9

RG luminor: 5

One radiomir case already is at the gold plater's -- but I kept another safe, just in case...

seeing as I normally don't even like gold watches, that's saying something

Wow! Glad to hear that!

"Ever" is long time.

They don't have 33.3mm though which is a shame

I would give a try with the 33mm crystal.

0.3mm should be small enough to get compensated by the teflon gasket -- plus a bit of glue, in case.

What size is a standard marina crystal? ex. 111

35.5mm diameter.

Is that true, or was it just a sales pitch?

It's true. Even truer (??? "more true"?) on glass than sapphire.

Oh well, I like it anyway.

A lot.

:lol:

"Pink" sapphire is just the best sapphire you can get.

It is not pink coloured.

At least this is what I was told.

A bold and nice project that deserves support.

Fiddy crystals are 39.95mm diameter.

Minifiddy crystals are 37mm diameter.

Cousinsuk domed sapphire cystals unfortunately go up to 32mm max.

Ofrei has the following domed sapphire crystals to take in consideration:

ZSGD-330-1.5, 33mm x 1.5mm, 45 USD

ZSGD-335-1.2, 33.5mm x 1.2mm, 45 USD

Great ! that's clear. Sorry for all the dumb questions

Cheap ? Does that means that the 295

docdoc, no PAM has a flat glass. Period. Pics or no pics. They are either slightly domed or highly domed.

The slightly domed are flat in their inner surface, so they are about 1-1.5mm thicker in their center point than along their border.

In the highly domed, the inner crystal surface follows the outer surface in its dome, so they are thinner than the slightly domed.

The 111 is slightly domed.

Is that for a 47mm watch, docdoc?

I got three for 44mm and they proved quite cheap. Nice, but cheap. One of them even fell in pieces right after mounting it.

Also, they are velcro but not Nato.

Recoated.
