Is the sapphire more or less raised over the bezel on the new generation of Rolex badges? Kind MLK Day thanks. |

Können Sie nach der Frage in Deutsch?
Can you post the question in German? Then Google Translate can tell us what you meant...

If you're comparing to the older Acrylic then the answer is clear. Not sure between ceramic models and the ones just replaced by ceramics

I think he is asking if it is closer to the bezel like in an Omega Seamaster...

Listen old sports, I am going 116610. My brother goes Goose green crystal. My best friend goes GMTIIc and Hulk. We are sitting around looking at photos. We are not certain whether my vintage Sub sapphire crystal rises higher above the bezel than the Goose crystal and the GMTIIc and Hulk crystals. |

Crystal much more flush on the newest models. Annoyingly so.

Thread is useless without pics. I borrowed a few from another thread I started awhile ago on this same topic. Search could be your friend.
Modern ceramic crystal almost flush with bezel. Boring. Perhaps functional. Still boring. Vintage 1680, much more interesting Deep Sea Special has the crazy tall one More old school crystals proving their charm |
