I wear my gen 372 most of the time and am interested to see if any rep owners have "achieved" a nice vintage plexi yet.
Before you ask, NO I did not do anything to make the plexi like this other than some shallow diving in the sea and all the wear and tear of everyday life - I know not everyone is into this vintage look but personally I think it is the only look that suits a 372 and echoes the Vintage pedigree of this model

Face on the Plexi just has a nice cloudy/soft very very vintage look to it and you dont really even see the crazing effect that is in the plexi


The watch dial and the hands look awesome when you get different angles on your wrist and different light sources - It NEVER gets boring to look at if you are into the vintage "thang" :)


Some other angles of the types of effects I LOVE



















When the sun hits those gold hands just right you get really cool gold shimmers right inside the plexi - very hard to capture with a photo though

I am not a Pam guy but this has changed my mind. I hope the crystal on my 587 will look like that one day.

I am getting straight scratches, not really wavy complex fractal lattices. Maybe I should go swimming with it, but then I would need to waterproof it.

Love the "well worn" look. As long as the dial is still legible I say leave it alone. My next watch will definitely have a plexi.

Not yet on mine but I like the 'vintage' effect.
