But I think they are like 12 hours ahead of us, it's it's 2 or 3 a.m. over there.

The WU is 2 blocks away, and I'm not familiar with the others.

DSN has shipping charges figured into his prices, that helps a little. Shipping is 30.0 to 40.00.

good luck

FWIW I bought a fully modded Fiddy from B2K, and about 10 months later the crystal blew when I wasn't around. It sat, all by it's lonesome, on my nightstand when the event happened. It was out of rotation, so I don't even know which day it occurred. It was supposed to be genuine sapphire, according to the sales thread.

Mostly 47mm PAM reps with mineral crystals.

This is what mine looked like:

Any PAM rep with a domed crystal is at risk, except ones fitted with Davidsen's domed sapphire crystal.

His is the only crystal shown to never have problems breaking, AFAIK.

Does Davidsen have a sapphire available for the mini-fiddy?

Nope. I asked him when I had my 212 (same case/crystal). He used to have a sapphire for an RXW chrono rep that he made a while ago, according to Enzo. Not available anymore.

Some of the 212/253 reps with the A7750s *claim* to have sapphire crystals, but I'm not sure how true that is. Your best bet for trying to source one would be PureTime/Angus, IMO. Joshua sourced my mini-Fiddy caseset, but couldn't source individual parts, it had to be the whole caseset.
