Rolexman Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Some time ago I sold my precious 312L to a dear friend of mine. Today he calls me and tells me he has a rather large scratch on the crystal.... I was like: 'R U sure?'.... 'It's saphire'! Then he sends me some pics. How on earth did he manage this? https://www.dropbox.com/sh/295k582s6ouh4pp/1TSRXsI5It I'm thinking of buying this: http://watchbitz.com.au/shop/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=39 Don't know if the scratch is to deep though.

kbh Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Bet you anything it's mineral glass. That's a nasty scratch for sapphire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Bet you anything it's mineral glass. That's a nasty scratch for sapphire. Thanks for the input. I would say the same if I did not bought this watch myself. Maybe there is a quality difference between sapphires? This is the version I bought: http://www.puretime.co/product/pam312-l-best-edition/ Or did they lie to us..... Again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 If you wear it to sleep an happened to have any diamonds laying around that would be how. That is a deep scratch. I have polished scratches out of sapphire before but it is a pain in the butt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Thanks for the input guys. I never bothered to check the crystal with a diamond tester. That will be the first thing I will do when he brings it by.... Let s see if I can order a spare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
