Re: PO Anti-Reflective Coating
In Response To: PO Anti-Reflective Coating ()

Like the other responses, mine is don't worry about it. I bought a used PO that had traveled through the hands of about five other posters on watch sites before I bought it. I had it for about a month when I was reading a post on TZ in which one of the previous owners of my watch was discussing how he removed the AR coating on his PO. I sent him an email and yes indeed, he had removed the outside AR coating.

I had the watch for over a month and didn't realize that the AR coating had been removed! I really don't think it makes much of a difference to have the exterior AR coating. The watch is still extremely clear and legible.

cheers,
Phil
