Genius 281 Posted November 19, 2015 Been wondering for a while, why the fuck would you bother putting a sapphire crystal in a watch if you are going to coat itON THE FUCKING OUTSIDE with some fancy AR material.... The whole point of a sapphire crystal is that it doesn't scratch and bloody brilliant it is! So then why go ahead and fuck that up by covering it in something really scratchable, just fucking bewildering, may as well use cling film as the crystal... Anyhow rant over just needed to get that out of my system Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stewart 0 Posted November 19, 2015 Rolex does't use AR on the outside. Just high quality sapphire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robin195959 2 Posted November 19, 2015 So they can charge to replace it occasionally. Of course Plexi could also be periodically changed but a) won't be anti glare and 2) won cost an arm and a leg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSJ 0 Posted November 19, 2015 I want sapphire as well as top quality AR on my reps cos I'm a deluded fucker and I want them like the gens. Not Rolex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millionaire wannabe 1 Posted November 20, 2015 This way, you get the best of both worlds - it won't scratch, & IT WILL!!! 2 for 1, an extra added bonus! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daywatch 4 Posted November 20, 2015 Always wondering about this question as well. The pictures of brand newly placed Prof crystals are stunning - but what happens a bit later and how does it look? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lagger 160 Posted November 20, 2015 Only ever had double ar once, it went patchy fast and had to get it removed as it looked terrible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
