hesilite not saphire on the dialyou may want to check that William if yours is a 3573.50...the 3572.50 has a hesalite...the upgraded 3573.50/aka "sapphire sandwich" (which replaced the 3572.50) has a sapphire crystal frt/rr and more water resistance to 50m...ThumbsUp02.gif

 watchdaddy1 wrote: YOU R CORRECToh my.gifnothin' to be upset about...I thought maybe someone replaced a cracked saph with a hesalite to save some bucks...the 3573.5 with the dual saphs is considered the "earthlings moon watch"ThumbsUp02.gif
...hesalite was used per NASA requirements on the Moon Watch because it wouldn't break into tiny frags if broken as a saph would,especially during weightlessness,causing unforseen problems aboard the space craft! ...some purists may frown on the sapphire sandwich model but imho it made the Speedy Pro a watch a WIS could truly enjoy,the view the mechanical movement is a marvel...
... what chance do we have of ever setting foot on the moon?dog smile.gif

Yeah, haven´t been much around here lately, sorry, all work and no play makes Johnny a dull boy...Family life is a killer sometimes, hehe, as you to know I guess.
But back in the game now, and will check in more often (and waiting for a Prometheus Ocean diver chronograph comming in next week, pics etc to come:0)
Yes, A lume shot would be much appreciated brothathumbsup.gifwhen u got the time (pun intended)
