Plexi glass is one of the softest materials for crystals so it needs constant polishing :)

any household toothpaste which contains any abrasive - will do the work, just be ready to put some effort - elbow grease for continuous rotational polishing :)

Nice job on the polishing!

Can you give me (and others) an idea of how you went about polishing?

For example, how much toothpaste did you use? What brand of toothpaste? What type of cloth? How much polishing was necessary? What direction did you polish? Etc.

Anything to give us newbies a better idea of HOW to polish the plexi.

I was just given an old gen Omega seamaster that has plexi and i'm intent on purchasing a rep 127e when it comes out again (that has plexi) so understanding how to maintain the plexi would be very helpful...

THANKS!

I just got an Autosol use a normal cloth to rub it. Just rub it one direction. Toothpaste any will do. Use tissue and rub it clockwise or anti clockwise. Up to you.....

Thanks!

Did you use just a little bit of toothpaste? (i'm assuming you did).

Where to get correct Swan Neck?

Some teasing photos :)

Anyone can point me to the place to get the correct Swan Neck and Micro Metric Screw? Been searching high and low to get it :(

Planing to swap the case out for a Case which come with a Sapphire Crystal or Hard Mineral. What you all think?

You will not get a completely exact Swan Neck device
But you can get a re-shaped Swan Neck spring and a correct length screw from modders like marlin or goin. Just that
The Swan Neck and screw are exactly like Noob
Incabloc and lyre spring seem gen
And the movement is ETA marked
