Looking to build an ultimate 232. All the standard suppliers of this REP apparrently use mineral glass now for this 47mm radiomir. Do you think DSN's crystal would fit? Should I get it with AR? This hopefully should not be too complicated because there are no cyclops involved.

Thanks,
PDNB

Hmmm, seems about right. I think his 44mm crystals go for $80-85?

Thanks Hooli for the feedback. Now that I know the price is what it is I am a little gun shy that it wont fit and I will be left with a sapphire crystal with no home. I am looking for other sources, but I haven't found any yet.

You can ask taiji what he used for his Ultimate 232 build up.

FWIW, I'm 99% certain it will fit. DSN's 44mm Luminor crystals fit non-DSN watches, his Fiddy crystals fit other Fiddies, etc.

thanks Hooli- I asked both Taji and Unregistered, and they either said it was sapphire or that they didn't mod thecrystal from whatever cartel gave them. Maybe cartel changed, or maybe the synthetic was good enough. I looked around several places. 47mm is pretty large, so maybe DSN maybe one of the few places that has. Atleast i can know that the crystal should most likely fit, if I get.
