Or a Hermes bag which retails for over $20,000. It's insanity.

Birkin is Hermes bag model

I have to agree with many of the other members here, the CF crystal is far behind the BT. The CF crystal is like looking at a 720 pic while the BT is like a 4k pic. I recently swapped my CF panda V2 dial and movement int the BT case and it made a big difference. I put the BT dial and movement back in the CF case. Another thing I have noticed while re-aligning my BT bezel is that that engravings are cut deeper than my CF bezel. I tried to take some decent pics that show how much better the BT crystal is than CF currently is.

BT (black) upon receipt
CF Panda before switching over to BT case

BT (black) now in the CF case



CF Panda V2 now in the BT case



Now Side-by-Side (BT Black Dial is in CF Case with CF Crystal, CF Panda V2 is in BT case with BT crystal)

Wow that became a perfect panda

Yeah, I'm pretty satisfied with the results. Now I just need another BT crystal to put in the CF case for the black dial.

 

[SuperLory]

ombre i'm trying to understand if the BTF case (midcase to maybe be more specific) differs from Clean, would you be able to comment on that ? TIA

 

[michaelle1193]

Received my CF v1.5 ( panda )today. Everything is good but I don’t like the crystal compares to the gen. Doesn’t look clearly

 

[mmaggi]

ombre - Thank you! Amazing what you did. Proves the point that the CF crystal is indeed inferior to BTF.

 

[Burbizia]

can anyone suggest an alternative crystal for Clean (ebay or similar) or the code of the genuine crystal (I found B25-7000-2-C1)

thanks in advance and regards! [h=3][/h]

 

[michaelle1193]

You guys know where to order a crystal for my panda? Someone said from Amazon or ebay I can’t remember

 

[nautilus293]

I think we should as our TD´s to get those BTF crystals for us lol

btf case looks better. Or just in pictures?

 

[nautilus293]

We should ask our TD´s to provide us these BTF Crystals

 

[Time_and_again]

Side by side pic looks completely different. Very nice er…downgrade

I think that the SEL's and CG's are better, but it's almost splitting hairs to me. Maybe I'm lucky enough to where the difference doesn't bother me. I think that the feel of the pushers is better on the BT, but this could just be luck of the draw. I've also noticed that some of the screws in my CF branded bracelet has a mix of shallow and deep screw heads. Again this could be luck of the draw.

I actually reached out to JTime to see if he can get them. Fingers crossed.

Yeah I'm not gonna lie, It bothers me now to look at the black dial now under the CF crystal. But, I like to wear the Panda more so I am happy with its outcome. I reached out to JTime to see if he can source a BT crystal. If he can't I may just buy another black dial BT from him.
