Robs sapphires are superb
In Response To: Re: lovely, but...Go Irish! ()

I've had two Silverstones fitted with Robs sapphires, (red & blue) and they are absolutely perfect. You can't differentiate from the originals.
Maybe it's in my mind, but I swear they are more clear, in the sense that that seem to be less reflective at angles, allowing the dial to be seen more cleanly - probably a figment of my imagination.

One thing it does do is make the wearing experience more relaxed, as you're not worried about knocking it.

Oh, and nice catch Jeff.. the 'Bordeaux' is a beautiful watch.
