Is it just me or does anyone else prefer acrylic to sapphire? I know sapphire is much more scratch resistant, but there's just a certain look acrylic has in the sun that I think is lost with sapphire. I had it on my Speedmaster and now on my 1450, and I much prefer the look.
I think it just you!
No, a lot of people like the visual "warmth" of acrylic crystal over sapphire, particularly on vintage models. Additionally some like the fact that acrylic is owner-refurbishable in the event of scratches. Personally I prefer the clarity and scratch-resistance of sapphire, but I can appreciate acrylic on the right watch.
