hackR Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 i just posted same over in chieftang's forum: Chieftang, et al -- I am a newbie and have recently received my first two watches...a hbb lite and a navi chrono avenger - brushed ss - 43mm case...the chrono avenger was purchased with a utc bracelet...yes - i know this is a flawed rep (been learning/reading and pm'ing andreww, etc), but i always liked the looks of this watch so i figured it was a good kick-around one to wear... here's my question...it obviously has no AR on the crystal...the crystal is slightly domed -- which results in slight distortion (or whatever it's called) when you look at the watch from a steep side angle...so here's my question: i know the AR will cut down on glare/reflection/etc but the distortion still has to be there, right?...so would i be better off to just replace the crystal with a new flat one with AR versus having the current domed one AR'd?... i love chieftang's work and wouldn't hesitate to send him the crystals (main and utc)...but i'm just not sure if i will get the effect i want with this domed crystal...(even while typing this and looking at the watch i see distortion b/c of the dome...(typing on a laptop)...anyhow, the question is what to do with this domed crystal... if a crystal replacement is something to consider, is there someone that any of you recommend?...i live in new york, USA... thanks...R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
