HA ! I have a pair I wear around the back yard. I'm a New Yorker. Not into that So Cal surfer look. But I do love South Florida :)

Domi double AR

Mike, does Domi sell the AR crystals by themselves or do you have to send him the crystals to coat ? I'm in CONUS and have a few crystals I want to get coated.

- Joe does the best AR work I've seen - check out his work in my profile pics, or here in different threads - looks like you can touch the hands, like the crystal disappeared -

All have their flaws / good points. AR has a lot to do with the crystal you send the modder.

He sold me this crystal indeed, he had an AR'd version in stock. I still have mine original.

how does one put AR on it?

am i missing something? the reflection on the FC Diver ? meaning that there is double AR on it? where as the rest doesnt show much reflection?

where can i buy the tools/equipments to improve the AR?

Have $500,000 in loose change?

Seriously, all AR is imperfect. From the size of the trays that the crystals are mounted in during the process, to the process itself, to the way the crystals are packaged afterwards, to the way they are installed--EVERYTHING MATTERS.
What guru's pictures shows (and what the arrival of the V3 to me today proves) is that the V3 AR is just like any other rep AR: nasty. No silver bullet here.

Still looking for a nice croc strap for this, seems they are hard to find! :)

As for the V3 crystal, it looks fine to me, the gen doesn't have double sided AR, so I am happy the rep is similar :)

AR opinion

Guru, in regards to Joe's AR being the best, it's my opinion based off of all the pics of peoples watches he's done AR for, & and my MH, it looks as if the crystal is gone. If you look in my profile i have pics of the MH from every angle - Yes, I've only been here 7 -8 months, but I'm obsessed with APs and I check out every post where someone has AR done to theirs. Mine is absolutely perfect. - Apologies if I don't have enough time on here to have an opinion. :-(
