Has anyone who ordered this noticed a smudge/dirt/fogginess under the crystal?
Hard to photograph... looks like the reflection of clouds but I'm under a tree. Particularly noticeable around the date.
thefitzI’ve heard mention that it’s a “feature” of the sapphitek crystal but may also mean it needs a clean, internally. If you have a read through the full discussion I think it’s mentioned somewhere. Not checked mine fully as I have to forget I’ve got it and then look surprised, in September, for Fathers Day (Australia).
AmsterdamnedGood to know, haha. I've reached out to the warranty team and will see what they say - I'd rather get it cleaned than return it and get another that may or may not have this issue.
thefitzJust had another look at your photos; didn’t notice how bad it was before. Definitely looks more like a clean would sort it but let us know what comes of your inquiry.
thefitzthefitz I got the same thing. Looks like they either installed dusty crystals or botched AR coating. Drop offered $35 credit to keep it. Not worth opening up 100m WR case. I’m sending mine back
thefitzThey did not. Just said they would send RMA. I suggested $100 credit and I keep it. They came back with $35 offer. Not worth the trouble it has already cost me.
weede01Can’t believe how lucky I’ve been with mine. Returning it from Australia would have cost me a fortune. Any chance you could try pushing for a replacement, if they can source one?
