Given the underlying under magnification issue, maybe a thicker Gen crystal from Subs may help with higher magnification, even if it is incorrect for GMT.

For Sub 25-295-C12-C1 2mm
For GMT2 25-295-CAR-C1 1.8mm

@saucin and @Mark1937 what crystal you guys put on your watch?

I put CAR, maybe the C12 would help?

Not identical to Gen I'm sure but it looks like the best replica batman insert ever produced imo. I'm buying one.

replace movement, gen d/w and xtal. I think I'll be good.

I kind of regret getting GMF instead of this ARF. The crystal height on the GMF drives me insane, otherwise I can get over the insert flaws.

It does look better in these new pics. The Blue color is also more saturated (or maybe its just TD lighting)

Nearer than you think
Very good but kinda underwhelming if you think about the fact that they took 1 year just to make an insert, and they still haven't made it well enough imo.

It's still very good, maybe the best batman available, but not on the level of other colored inserts :mad:

Should you use the stock gasket or the gen comes with the CAR crystal? Which one will give the closer to gen. cyclop magnification?

Oh, I recalled the gen gasket won't work on the ARF GMT case as the retention ring won't fit. Am I correct? I think at least this is the case in the ARF GMT LN
