I suspect that's Sapphire rather than acrylic so Polywatch won't touch it
I think new crystal might be the only way forward.

Yep, new glass required. Or just leave it as Watch-Wabi

Pretty sure only diamond paste and a dremel will get that out.
This today, I'm starting to realise this may be my holy grail watch:

Well it is gorgeous DM and worthy of a grail watch.
I would love the sapphire exhibition back version.

I really don't like rubber straps normally but have heard the Timefactors rubber is very good quality and a bloody site cheaper than a "proper" one. I will give it a go and if i don't like it i will sell it on and buy a black/beige python leather or a Nato for it.

Had it about a year I think... I wore it quite often when I first got it, but not so much since as I was slightly concerned at the noise the rotor was making; I took the back off last evening and lubed / tightened the rotor bearing a little and the noise has since reduced substantially, so I think it is OK enough to wear again
You have bought one?
