I can confirm that they will be using sapphire !Let's hope for the KW.
I don't like the SF dial.
And: let's hope they use a sapphire; they also used a plexi @422...
Gen is sapphire and Titanium DLC coated
Rep from SF is plexi and SS DLC coated
We will see KW version
BTW: the distortion that gen crystal produces is really ugly mainly in the railway contour indices, isn't it?
ALE
I was surprised for this very reason when I realized they opted for a fiddy-like crystal, distortion is almost impossible to avoid being the rail track on the outer edge of the dial. Most likely a plexi or a different crystal shape would have solved this issue.
We'll see how the rep will look.
Re. gun lead grey satin finish: if you polish these DLC black PAM cases, you can usually get a nice gun lead grey finish. Trick is to get an even finish throughout all of the case.
