Pam187 and pam183 crystals/lume

[tétro]

Hi folks,

I have some watches repairing at my watchsmith, and in particular a pam187 and a pam183 (noob version). I was thinking about using the occasion to mod the crystals of these 2 which don't give me satisfaction.
So anyone can give me some advices:

What do i have to ask for a good relume for the pam 187: it seems hard to apply lume on the markers, and which color for dial/hands/pearl

Is it worth replacing the pam 187 crystal or better to do an AR? Single or double? If no who can supply a better saphire? I've noticed some convincing mods in the forum with AR, what do you think?

Same question for the pam183: Wtb a good crystal ? and will it fit this version ? Is a pam380's crystal an option?

Sorry i don't introduce myself here but i did in the french corner if some are interested to see my collection

There's no good after market sapphire crystal for 187 & 183 in my memory .
So , if you're not satisfied with them , AR is the best choice .
All AR service are double , and you can remove the outside AR to make it become sibgle inside AR .
183 came with sapphire or some with mineral in low class reps , if yours is good one , it should be sapphire already .
Since they're all sapphire , it's not necessary to swap them , right ?

I don't think the 187 needs new AR. The purple tint was done by Noob for a reason - the gen has it...

Ok thanks, I thought there was different classes of sapphire since many replace theirs. I Will definitely ask for an AR for the 187.
@dropbea2007 on mine the AR si rather greenish
