charlesanderika 30 Posted July 4, 2015 any suggestions for getting rid of it.... or should I just forget it and just enjoy wearing it?? I picked this Omega up on M2M recently and I really like it but in some lights one side of the crystal has a definite problem as you can see on the picture. Its not always visible but its driving my OCD nuts !! Any help gratefully received Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UmpaHimself 222 Posted July 4, 2015 Sometimes the top layer of AR can start to wear off and fade, or get scratched. If it's sapphire then the cristal is fine but just the AR is messed up. If you've already tried cleaning it with a microfiber then it's the AR. Some people have the top layer buffed off and it cleans right up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boycie 459 Posted July 4, 2015 I had the same issue on a B&R and ended up using jewellers rouge and polished it out without any further concerns and I was not bothered with the small loss of AR. This is stuff I used Charles - http://www.amazon.co.uk/JEWELLERS-ROUGE-JEWELERS-POLISHING-150mls/dp/B001V6EKZ8 Good luck mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awesome - thanks guys - I have a Dremmel so I reckon that Jewelers Rouge will do the trick, and if not I'll try the Cape Cod (the Seamaster looks great) Cheers C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One slip and you will have an ex-crystal. Just a thought. Good luck with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
