Dust (?) inside my Zelos, seeking advice
Posted: Thu Jun 13, 2019 3:35 pm
So I noticed a while ago that there seems to be some dust or a hair under the crystal of my Horizons GMT. You can see it in my WRUW pic from today. Look between the Z logo and the 12 index:
You can see it at other angles, too:
I am almost certain it is not a scratch on the crystal. I cannot feel anything when i run a fingernail over it, and it looks as if the end of it (on the Z side) is hanging off the inside of the crystal.
Although I really don't think it is a scratch, I suppose it could be. Is there a way to buff/polish the sapphire to be sure? Is it even possible that something is stuck to the inside of the crystal? I have not been swimming in this watch and when it is not on my wrist it is in my box or my winder with the crown screwed down properly.
If something is stuck inside, is it worth trying to take it to a watchmaker? Or would you email Elshan directly?
Not sure how to proceed and would like to hear what you guys think. Thanks!
