: could have been a terrible touch up job (shadows around numbers
: in bottom chronograph)
: Well the dial is actually immaculate and the pictures did it no
: justice what so ever
: Issue is that the crystal is in terrible condition, and the cracks
: are creating the illusion of the shadows
: You can't get a good photo of it without this illusion (hence why I
: haven't included one here now)
: So needs a service and a new crystal, but other than that its
: absolutely gorgeous, so am extremely happy
: So my question is does anyone know where I could get a new crystal
: for this watch?
: Will get it serviced and new crystal and will then take some photos
: for you all.
: Cheers,
: Andy.
