Anyone ever order a crystal from them? I'm interested but wonder about the quality? Are they AR'd ?

[docthor]

Just found them too and asked for a quote for 3777 crystals. According to them they are gen spec and AR'd. But 160$ per crystal (incl. paypal and shipping) seems a bit high to me. Not sure yet if I order or not...

I ended up getting one. Happy with the crystal and cyclops mag was good but AR was the Chinese purple hue, which kinda sucked. Will have to get new AR at some point

[docthor]

Many thanks young padawan You just saved me at least 320$

I would only buy because of the AR but not when it has that f'ing purple hue...

Well thanks again Jedi it seems you saved us all the buy and found out!

Here's some pics with a sapphy Xtal on my franken 089. The first pic shows the cyclops which IMO is quite good. Correct mag and no halo where it was attached.

The second pic shows the fit which is what annoys me the most. Xtal is a little tall for the case so won't seat flush. That of course could be the case so not sure I can fault them for that.

Finally the purple AR which is exaggerated on this watch because the dial can give of a similar hue but most of this is the crystal. I had a colorless AR before and I can definitely tell the difference. RIP Xtal.

I will probably try and mod the case to seat the Xtal better and then send it to prof for his magic.

May be force be with you guys.
