Early this year, I had to replace the crystal of my Chrono Avenger as the outer AR coating wore off. The local AD replaced the crystal along with the gaskets. Its been in my winter coat pocket all this time, and I keep forgetting to take a snapshot.

Here's a snapshot of it with a Canadian penny beside it as a guide for you to grasp the thickness of the crystal. The Chrono Avenger crystal is double AR coated and is domed.

Nice picture, did you blur that in photoshop or is that effect from the depth of field of your camera/lens settings?

That's impressive - they're a lot thicker than I thought.

It would certainly take allot to shatter or crack that.
