Kleen™ 45 Posted January 26, 2014 - is it beyond polishing with the proper kit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElvisFreak 73 Posted January 26, 2014 No, the side edges that rests underneath the bezel is cracking and tiny pieces are falling off. I really need to just replace it. So, Tropic 21? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I read both threads and the reviewer states that the Clark's tropic 21 needs sanding down so the DW bezel can fit through properly. Is that the case? Here is the only one T21 I found on Ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crystal-Ref-25-21-Tropic-21-For-Rolex-CLARK-crystals-/231104504889?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35cee6e439 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElvisFreak 73 Posted January 28, 2014 http://www.ebay.com/...=item35cee6e439 So, will this crystal fit or it will need to be trimmed? Or where else can I source a crystal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had to do it in my den omega 613 and before I repaired it I could loose a fingernail in a scratch And now Guys, it must be my language skills, I am not sure but the crystal is barely alive as the side on it has two areas where pieces of the crystal are missing because they fell off.

Olly 0 Posted January 28, 2014 Ohh !! Maybe not Yes you need a new crystal Have a look on www.cousinsuk.com and go onto the omega section. Select Omega Generic Crystals and you might find one there. Failing that i have no idea Vintage Rolex Crystals where SIMILAR to Vintage Omega's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
