Unless you run into some incredible stroke of luck, it would be unlikely to run into an original crystal. However, cutting one is not a problem, any good shop should be able to do it. | ||

Hey Zaf, I'm based in the UK and 'good' shops are hard to come by. Is there any chance you could let me know what kind of price (in $) I should be paying for a new glass from a 'good' shop in the States. Best, Tictoc | ||

You have to have a glass fitted. It would need to be done locally. Try calling "Buy Yourself Some Time" operated by Martyn Stamp, Admiral Vernon Gallery Portobello Road, London. He's familiar with that sort of watch. | ||

Thanks Zaf, Actually Martin is an old friend of mine from whom I bought the watch! Small world. I'll ask him again but last time I did he wasn't able to help. Still, thanks for your advice. Tictoc | ||

He must know someone in the UK that cuts glass! | ||

I've heard this outfit in Atlanta is very good and they work with overseas buyers. http://www.crystalfit.com/index.html Hope this helps, gatorcpa |
