eunomians Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 How do I tell if my crystal has AR coating? I have an IWC Mark XV that I purchased from Trusty and I have no idea if it has any AR coating on it. I would like to get in on Chieftang's next AR run.

HauteHippie Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 I'm not familiar with that watch. But if it has a black dial, then AR is very easy to notice. At certain angles, when you catch some light in the crystal, you will just see a bluish tint. On white dial watches, the AR color (not the lack of reflections) is harder to notice. Try reflecting some flourescent light off your cystal if it has a white dial, and look at the color of the reflection. It'll be more subtle, but you should see a slight blue in the reflection.
