What parts of the tungsten version are you worried about wearing out lol
For example, maybe replacing a pusher or crown because it was worn out or because a gen part is available? A steel part would be more readily available than tungsten. And if one part really needs to be replaced, maybe it would become a franken watch with tungsten and steel parts?

Based on your huge knowledge and experience on Daytonas what (if any) would you change or modify on your watch having seen it in person? Crystal, gasket, WG plating, etc.?
At this stage i dont see any mods to be made given what are we looking at: default xtal is great imo, dont see the reason of even swaping a deep.
Gasket the same and wg plating might be the biggest fugazi cosidering the superb hue of the tungsten.
Gonna enjoy it ootb atm

Pushers and crowns on tungsten watches are steel.

Damn you folks I'm getting one and probably will end up with two Le Mans, one from Clean and one from QF. LOL

I’m wondering, does the QF petit lemans have that same white gold hue?

looks nice, however sue me, but I think such an upgrade for this piece is unnecessary, since the factory xtal is fully suitable for the purpose
I think after experiencing Deep and seeing gen, I don't see paying 8x the price of deep for a gen crystal unless it's a full franken build and for completion sake. Might be blasphemy but Deep looks better. Deep only has some weakness in LEC etching and maybe some batches have tolerance but for $50 it's insane.
