VDM-MIN-BOMBE-200
Domed 0.8 mm mineral crystal with anti-reflective coating. Available in one diameter only, 30.2 mm, priced at €5.90.
This crystal comes in one diameter only: 30.2 mm. It is therefore intended for those whose old crystal measures exactly this size at the base, with a thickness of 0.8 mm.
A thin domed crystal of this diameter is often found on medium-sized classic or dress watches, where a discreet curved profile is wanted. It generally suits a case whose bezel offers little depth.
The anti-reflective coating reduces glare on the crystal surface: the dial is easier to read in bright light or well-lit interiors. It improves legibility, not protection.
As for the material, mineral crystal has a standard hardness of about 5 to 6 on the Mohs scale. It is a good compromise between strength and price, but it scratches more than sapphire. The domed shape gives a curve that sits proud of the bezel, which exposes the centre of the crystal a little more.
As there is only one size, measuring is crucial. With a calliper, record the diameter of the original crystal at its base, then its thickness at the edge. If you get 30.2 mm and about 0.8 mm, this crystal is suitable; otherwise, choose the uncoated 0.8 mm domed crystal, available in many diameters. Our measuring guide explains the procedure.
