59vampire Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 I'm thinking of getting the Milgauss with green crystal at Trustytime. It looks good with the exception of the hands being silver in the pictures and black on the video like the real thing. Being a newbie here, the technical stuff about movements doesn't mean much to me except my brief research shows if info to a Swiss movements would be better off as far as repairs go if needed. That being said, if anyone can offer other vendors that the board likes or comments on this one in particular it would be greatly appreciated. Thank in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

59vampire Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 I did an extensive search here. Green apparently isn't the way to go. I could live with the clear crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobz777 Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 Has anyone purchased the after market green glass on ebay and with pictures of it installed? http://www.ebay.com/itm/310348423110?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bones Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 Gen hands are not black they are silver just like the rep. The green crystal is an AR coating, the aftermarket ones from eBay are exactly the same. Some have a green gasket as well. Rolex holds the only patent on the manufacturing process for the green sapphire crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
