Sweet looking PO!

Mine arrived today :)

Thanks SunnyD

Your welcome!

Still want to find out if this crystal will fit the new crPO

Maybe someone has already tried? I am about to order 45 mm model and try if UPO crystal will fit. I have one with a bit of greenish but very clear AR crystal to try it out.

Yes you will have to let me know! I'm going to order the 42 and have your crystal already, just don't have the tools to try get the crystal to fit myself!

Really? Does it fit SMP Chrono? How about the height? Many have asked me about the SMP but I have always said no :)

BTW, beautiful watches there!

Well that explains it all :) Looks pretty good though!

I ARred my SMP Chrono crystal and it was really thin compared to PO crystal. Here it is :)

No one I know would even notice the difference.

Besides it is a franken with gen dial (old style), gen hour/minute hands, gen He valve, and gen aged insert. So the crystal is a minor flaw in my eyes.

How well did it fit idk? stock rep gasket?


Edit: Ok I'm slow! Good old hypo! :)
