deja Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Hi guys, need some help here! is this a genuine bezel and tropic?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 I'm thinking no on the insert... inside of the "2" angle is pointed, and a narrow "4" should have a tall "5". Need to see a profile shot of the crystal, is it a T-127? That looks like the very old "sorta domed-squarish" T-127 on my 1680. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superlative Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Let's see the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetor Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) I've heard a method to tell gen crystals. Look at the bottom edge of the crystal. If you can see the layers of the crystal with the naked eye (you'd have to contrast this against the light) then it's not gen because rep crystals are usually layered much less than a genuine one, which appears quite smooth Edited October 19, 2011 by praetor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superlative Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 If I could see the bottom of the bezel, it'll take me a nanosecond to see if it's a gen or rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 im going to also say 'no' on the insert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Tropic is hard to tell, on used are the edges from wearing rounded. But the inlay ist not gen I think, the hole for the pearl is too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
