Any problem with the plastic crystal? It is scratch resistant? Why not saphire?

The acrylic crystal is average, and scratches easily. But it also polishes easily, too.

Davidsen doesn't offer a sapphire for these Blancpains, and I haven't looked into replacing the crystal. If you want sapphire and don't mind an homage, you could look at the Precista PRS-50, the Mk II Stingray, or the Corvus Bradley. I think all of them have sapphire crystals; the Corvus even has an optional sapphire bezel insert.
