Thanks everyone for the replies! I've been obsessively staring at this "gap" for a few days now and after fishing out my 15x loop (my eyes aren't what they used to be!) I'm actually not convinced anymore there's a gap at the crystal bezel interface. The c

Hi watchprosite Patek friends. I just picked up a 3700/1a (1977). It's obviously been polished but to my eye it's acceptable and the last polishing job was decent. I'm generally quite happy! I do have a question about the crystal. It looks like there's ev
