I had a quick question to ask you guys about the sapphire crystal. As I look at the watch face under regular light, I notice a few tiny, microscopic scratches. I am guessing these are just micro scratches in the AR coating. I was wondering if there was anything you could do to buff these out or anything. |

You can remove the AR coating, it can be polished off, leaving just the internal coating. I had this done on my Steelfish and its nice not worrying about it any more. There are also companies out there that can re-coat the crystal, but thats quite intrusive. They're really your only 2 options unless you're happy to live with it. Its not uncommon to get small scratches in the AR. I guess you could have a new crystal fitted at a major service |

A fully comprehensive answer from Mart there! Remove it totally yourself, or a costly re-coat by a non-Breitling source, or pay for Breitling to fit a new crystal are your only options. |
