Well *#$!

So, I have owned sapphire crystal watches for a long time - a pretty beat up Omega Seamaster that's 10 years old, my SD, and others over the years. Not once, not one single time have I ever marred the crystal... until today.

Put on my Europelli baseball strap on my 312 and went to a Reds game with my son. After getting home I noticed something small on the crystal right above a 6. Two small somethings. Got the cleaner and cloth out and rubbed. Wouldn't come off. Unbelievable - somehow I dinged it and there is even slight scratch line near the bezel that's in line with the 2 small dings.

So, besides yelling a lot of 4 letter words, what are my options? How much will a new crystal cost me?

Edit - I will try and take some pics tonight.
