“The crystal I received was out of spec and could not be installed by the jeweler. Even paired with a new OEM gasket, the crystal would not properly seat in the case. To make matters worse, the smaller crystal diameter caused the jewelers press to over seat the crystal and damage the chapter ring. And yes, the case is a genuine SKX007.”
“Huge upgrade from the stock hardlex which I had scratched dozens of times over the last 15 years. Thanks to your YouTube crystal replacement video, took me all of 5 minutes and watch looks better than ever.”
“I replaced a badly pitted Hardlex on my SKX009J with this sapphire crystal. Easy replacement, looks great! I'm not positive, but it appears that the bevelled edge on the sapphire is very slightly greater than on the Hardlex, resulting in a slightly larger gap between the crystal edge and the bezel insert. Not a big deal, but noticeable. It's even more noticeable with the thicker sapphire Pepsi bezel insert I added. Different than factory, but beautiful results! Thanks again, Marc!”
