I have been asked by some members regarding the crystal mod, will try to explain it in here.
The crystal is too high, about .3 mm. To achiev gen thickness of the watch the crystal needs to sit a little lower. You only want to see the facet out of the crystal.
Now this pic shows the crystal
crystal with gasket
next step is you put the bezel on the crystal so that only the facet
shows out of the bezel. This needs to be even. Now you will have
some material of the gasket which shows out of the bezel. About
.3 mm. Cut this away with a sharp knife. I used a carpet knife.
All done !
