Hate to ask ,but did you take the plastic film off? If you look just below 80-90 in the Tachy ring you can see something.(a second curved line)

 

Yes I took off the plastic film, I will have a close look when I get home, I have not got it on today.

Really good eyes! It does look like there is a second layer over the crystal.

I have a GC 36 w/ double AR and it looks like it's not even there some times. Also gives off a weird blue haze on anything it reflects on.

 

So example,

 

If i have a light source above me (lamp or sun) that light source is very dim bluish haze. There is no reflection of it it, and if there is because it's super bright, it's a very light blue haze of it.

Who did you buy your watch off ?

 

I think they left the factory with no AR coating, because the replacement I got sent has a blue tint to it.

Sounds like yours is correct as it should give off a blue haze.
