Does anybody know the exact measurements of these?

Close to 30.5 mm in diameter, thickness 3 or 4 mm. I don't remember exactly. Anyone knows Liquidmetal measurements?

Edit: I remember R2D4 said PO is 30.48 mm.

OK, thanks. That is the same as the SMP. Now I need to know the thickness.

Can anyone confirm that liquidmetal PO rep take the 5GPO crystal? I am torn between ordering 2 5GPO or 1 LM and 1 pumpkin... I ordered two Sunny's crystal and undecided where those would go...

I read somewhere (I guess dr bollock) that the factory uses the same 5GPO caseset for LM, but no factual confirmation so far...

TIA

I'll try and confirm for absolute sure over the weekend (with a standard 5th gen crystal) and early next week with a sunny crystal, my sunny crystals should be here next Mon or Tues. If it takes the first it will take the sunnys.
I must pull out the LM over the weekend and start taking it apart fully anyway. Been waiting for these crystals to get some work done on it. If the dial looks good with modded pearl and sunny crystal I'll go ahead and get it lumed properly. Construction does seem identical to the 5th gen case but this is just on viewing, I can't confirm for absolute sure that it takes all standard parts until I've tested them.
I'll be sure to let you know. One thing about the LM was the bezel was an absolute bstard to get off, maybe it was just mine was a one off but much harder to budge than any other PO bezel...so there could be some variances. Definitely the He is taller than the 5th gen...but in the correct position etc.
