The crystal in my case is 2.5 mm. Taka makes a crystal that is 2.7 mm. It should be a good alternative for cases that won't take a the 3.5 mm crystal. I believe my watch will look like the gen above with the 2.7 mm crystal installed.

My case is supposed to be a Cartel. I think a crystal with a 2.5 or 2.7 mm rise would be perfect. The 1:1 crystal, which 3.5 mm, just won't work on certain cases.

I am not 100% happy with my DSN 111h. I replaced the crown and CG, but the dial still lacks and the crystal is so-so. Would the dial and maybe the case from a 111j make a better watch? Here are some pics of my 111 as it is now.
Thanks.

The rubber strap that Bill supplies is pretty nice. I was also looking at a mesh. How do you think that would look? I am also thinking about getting the case brushed (just the top ... leaving the sides and the bezel polished) or having it blasted.
The bracelet is very nice. It is well finished with no sharp edges. It's not quite Breitling quality, but it's very nice. The removable links have double screws with a pin in the middle. They screw into the link, not the pin in the middle, so you don't need to use two screwdrivers, which IMHO is a real pain in the a$$.
