Sapphire crystal for 42mm B Dial?

[bin31z]

Does Laco offer domed sapphire crystals for sale to fit the 42mm B dial flieger? I might be buying a watch with mineral glass and want to upgrade it to sapphire. Is it a simple thing to install by a watchmaker?

Yea, I would order that watch except it cost almost twice what the one I'm looking at in the sales section is going for.

go to Laco online shop for details and price of each model.

I did this very thing. Back when Peter Pfeiffer worked at Laco, I bought a sapphire crystal as a replacement for a 42mm B-dialed B-Uhr. Took it to my watch maker and had him swap out the crystal for a couple bucks. The sapphire crystal from laco was about 80 Euros as I recall.

Good luck,
