Thanks KJ!! Just a note for members looking for gen crystals. Rolex has stopped the old numbering mechanism and given new numbering (I learnt it the hard way through recent purchases). Chances are you might find NOS but most of them are the new ones. The 116610 Sub and 116710 GMT crystals still have the same numbering

Examples below:

Old Daytona Crystal - B25-295-5-v2-c1
New Daytona Crystal - B25-295-5-v3-c1 or B25-7000-2-C1

Old YM 116622 Crystal - B25-295-car-v3-c1
New YM 116622 Crystal - B25-295-car-v5-c1

When in doubt, always check with your watchmaker first.

The gen crystal B25-295-CAR-V5-C1 have the AR anti-reflective only on the cyclops or on the whole glass?

On a side note, BP CHNR with Clark AR vs Stock

The magnification on the Clark looks as per gen

Are the TD able to install the Clark crystals? I was quoted for install for deep crystal.
