pugliesotto Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Have someone ever tried to put some varnish with a fine needle on the crystal's etched crown ? then it would be fair to clean the excess varnish with a wool cloth.

JohnG Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Don't know why you would want to do that, but hey, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceberg1127 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 the crystal thing is somthing that 90 % or people wouldnt know about anyway. it would be a lot of trouble for nothing imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paneraibob Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Did anyone ever tried just to plish it out from the inside with saphire chrystal polish paste that you also can use to get out little scratches. Could be worth a try, if it would work i would finally get mysellf a SSD after i already have a SRSD an the Deepsea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashman Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 But if you slip up, you ruin a good crystal. I would just live with the etching rather than try removing it. Either that, or get an MBW so you can get a gen or aftermarket blank crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcook Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 I tried glue, varnish, polishing the etching out and nothing worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w.genzo Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Only vintage MBW accept gen crystal. Or the newest submariner with engraved rehaut. No sellers sell their rep + gen parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
