Crystal AR

[siesta181]

Guys,

Due to my incompetence in modding, I have inadvertantly place the minute hand of my PAM 111 incorrectly. It seemed to have caused a perfect "circle" to appear on the inside of my crystal. Suspected continous friction from the tip of the minute hand rubing against the crystal causing the "circle" to appear. The "circle is visible only at certain angles. Barely noticeable but its there, I know it and it bothers me. Why it bothers me? Because I KNOW its there.

Question:

Assuming that the crystal is sapphire crystal, the crystal should still be scratch-free, shouldn't it? And a trip to Chief is all the baby needs?

The other option is crystal replacement from DSN?

Crystal was from Angus. Anyone has had any misrepresentation with regards to the type of the crystal from him? If its sapphire I hope to get this problem fixed during Chief's next AR run hopefully via Vac

Cheers

It' probably a sapphire crystal and undamaged. I say probably because I have seen a couple mineral crystals come in lately, but I really don't know what types of watches they've come from....

Thanks Chief,

Let me know of when's the next AR run. I'd like to have it ARed. Very likely thru VAC

Cheers

They sell compounds specifically for scratches. Try that before you get a new crystal altogether.
