New updates so far.
Was able to find a Gen 25-315 crystal which was a direct swap using the GMF stock gasket. Gen gasket was a bit thicker and needed more force to go on, and i didnt want to take a chance forcing anything too much and breaking something.
Installed Gen smooth bezel, also a direct swap.
However, noticed that now the date seems too large in the window compared to gen. Guess what? The date font and date window on the stock GMF dial are slightly larger to make up for a lower mag on the GMF cyclops!
So now i will try an aftermarket 3136 dw and see if it looks better.
With Gen crystal you can also see a more prominent halo effect surrounding the crystal, and it protrudes/sits higher than rep crystal. Of course, AR/black hole effect is better and LEC is less prominent. Definitely recommend changing the crystal.
