The FACT:

Yesterday, after a tennis section, dressing my GEN GMT II, it flipped out from my hand to the floor; :black_eye:

I get it in my hands and discovered the CRACK, the crystal was gone.

:bangin:

When I come home I find on my workbench a gen 295c-2 crystal ready for a future project,

so I opened my 16710.

I replaced the crystal, I get a fast ( homemade 8) ) waterproof testing.

Then I get all on the ultrasonic washer too.

I'll get again the waterproof testing from a profy watchmaker this week during too. :good:

et voilà!
