Hi Mates,

Last week I completed the crystal upgrade to my 42mm Planet Ocean LM. I ordered one of the amazing double AR crystal from Sunnydale, which by the way is a great person with an amazing customer service.

After struggling with the rep crystal gasket (which ended up on my trash can) I was able to complete the job and I made some photos which I want to share here with you.

And finally, the wrist shoot:

Thanks for viewing.

Cheers!

Did you thrash the crystal gasket or the crystal as well? I don't see any crystal. :rofl:

Great photos.

If you lunatics don't stop this madness, reps will soon be nicer than gens.

Looks great.....takes the watch to the next level...

Just to ask you, the crystal on the older PO's that Sunny made, will they fit on these newer Ceramic PO's too?

No gasket mate. I ended up using Loclite UV and silicon glue to fix the and seal the crystal.

I think you should check the watch, crystal has obviously fallen off :)

Seriously, does it look any odd without the gasket? It looks stunning in the pictures. How is the crystal sitting, high or ok?

Very very nice pics, droolllll :)

And thanks for the compliments!

Looks killer. Really like the croc strap. Brings the dressy level of that watch up immensely.

Maybe the crystal fell off and I didn´t notice.... oh no wait!! It has a Sunnydale´s one!! :notworthy:

The crystal sits a little bit high, like .5mm out of the bezel I´d say. I´ll take some macro photos and will share it here in order for you guys to see it.

Thanks again for your help, advice and for that great service. Nothing to thank for the compliments, you earned it and deserve it!

Cheers!!

I agree mate. I always liked better the leather strap on the PO than the SS bracelet.

Cheers!
