Just FYI - I recently replaced a Navitimer 809 crystal with a bezel edge pocket watch crystal from Frei (http://www.ofrei.com/page998.html) that looks like an exact match. Size as 38.5mm -others may be slighly different. Best part - it was $6.50! Craig

Looks great. I have an older Navitimer that could benefit from that. Is it a glue in?

I had to use some glue with this one. because of the angle of the bevel edge, I don't think it can be installed and still be tight in place. It wasn't loose but I could still turn it. Craig

That does look very good Craig - is the camber about the same?

It looks the same to me but I would need an original to compare it to. The crystal that was on this NAV when I received it was an incorrect replacement. Now I have to get one for my own NAV! Craig

my replacement plexi on my 806 was cheap from BSA it was the service they made me have with it that was a killer. the replacement from BSA isnt the same profile as the original as im sure ur aware but slightly shallower looks good tho
