lantis Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 I haven't even received my HBB and it's already bugging me. Any alternative to txcollectors' HBB crystals (original thread here) with the correct height? I see there's also 2Geek but from my research it's not with the correct height. I'm currently not in my country of origin so even if I want to do this as a special project, I don't even know where to start. I barely even talk the local language EDIT: Found another guy, Mickey2008, but he seemed to have stopped producing crystals also.
senator Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 maybe here you can buy one too: Hublot Crystal
lantis Posted August 11, 2011 Author Report Posted August 11, 2011 maybe here you can buy one too: Hublot Crystal That's the 2Geek version that's good, but not the correct height
txcollector Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 I think 2geek only re-coats the rep crystals.
Watchmeister Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 I think 2geek only re-coats the rep crystals. That is what I was told from someone who got one. If I were you I would start begging TX. With the new Hublots you never know.
coolfire Posted August 12, 2011 Report Posted August 12, 2011 That is what I was told from someone who got one. If I were you I would start begging TX. With the new Hublots you never know. Absolutely. My HBB ceramic became so much better with TX's crystal.

Mosh Posted August 12, 2011 Report Posted August 12, 2011 how is the AR coating on the tx crystal? i know that their were two batches of the tx crystal. One had bad AR, the other had good AR.

Mosh Posted August 12, 2011 Report Posted August 12, 2011 Thats good to hear. I had one of the tx crystals on my black magic that i recently sold, and it looked awesome. Made the watch feel and look like the gen.

Kind of conflicting message you have there mate. Are you the same Mosh?
Mosh Posted August 14, 2011 Report Posted August 14, 2011 Kind of conflicting message you have there mate. Are you the same Mosh? Yes its the same mosh. I meant to say that the height of the tx crystal is the same height as the gen. It looked great on my black magic watch. I wasnt referring to the AR of the crystal. When i asked about the AR coating of the tx crystal, i meant to say between the 2 batches, was their any noticeable difference. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Anyway here is a pic of my recently sold black magic watch:
