I don't have any idea what a crystal protector is. Are you referring to the plastic bezel protectors most dealers throw away?

For a 34mm Oyster Perpetual Date, finding a specific crystal protector might be a bit more challenging due to the smaller size compared to more common models like the 36mm Datejust. However, you might still find some options available through specialized watch accessory retailers or custom watch accessory makers.
Alternatively, you could explore other methods of protecting the crystal, such as using a microfiber cloth or a watch pouch when not wearing the watch to prevent scratches. Additionally, regular maintenance and care can help keep the crystal in good condition over time. If you're unable to find a specific crystal protector, these alternative methods can still provide some level of protection for your watch. |

You're trying to cover sapphire (one of the hardest substances known) with a less hard substance?

Mine is acrylic. But sapphire is a such more common term now. So just used that. Also even if it was sapphire. If you rub it on a doorframe for instance. It could leave a smudge embedded in the sapphire but not necessarily “damage” it |

Static cling. The 36mm size helps protect the bezel as well. Reusable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
