D , if you have an extra 44 I will take it.

G, for 44 mm there are no aftermarket crystals available at the moment. The construction
of the crystal is totally different. Not like AP ROO. They have a outer diameter of 35 mm
and an inner diameter of 36 mm. Thickness is 1.6 mm. The bezel is pressing the crystal in.

Looks like we all need to send the watches in for AR and wait.

Quick Q's:
- when are we supposed to pay for the rest of the total price?
- since Domi would have to install the crystal for me, can he keep mine while i send him my 15400?
thanks

I am going to send a PM to everybody with the payment instructions when I get the
crystals from Domi. That should be Tuesday or Wednesday coming week.

Is there a way to see before and after shots of a stock double AR crystal to a Domi re-AR? I need a frame of reference

update March 18th

I will receive the first batch of crystal tomorrow. All orders for MD, 15400 and RB will be fullfilled. For SD I only have 8 xtals, so I will send the
xtals out in order I received the downpayment. The second batch of another 20 SD was shipped to AR today. So it will be back in about 2 weeks
from now.

I am going to send out a PM in the next 24h to the first customers, please follow the instructions. I need your ship to address and no gift PP transactions.

guru, some question for V3 diver crystal,
sapphire has very slight green tint, and mineral is complete colorless,
then is it correct for me to think that mineral is the better one ?

Mineral is better than sapphire but it is cheaper ?

High-end watches tend to use sapphire than mineral since its stronger and greater scratch-resistant, am i correct?

mineral can look better and clearer, but i believe putting mineral on those 15400, RB, etc is not a good idea
and in long-term those hairline scratches might appear gradually.
