2- it´s normal to this happen, It´s just my first time I never clean with alcohol gel, and this was the result!

The AR out of the dial don´t have anymore AR, but Inside has AR.

But the MOst Important was it´s was Bored me so much, At the night I was TRY very hard to try to remove this spot, but unfortunately I didn´t

So you washed your crystal with a gel/soap that contains alcohol, you took it to your AD and they told you you've 'washed off' the AR coating and you need a replacement crystal?

I didn't know the PO had an AR coating on the outside of the crystal, and I don't know whether it is actually ruined or not.
I'd wash it a few times the coming week and rub/clean the crystal with a Tshirt like you clean it when it has fingerprints on it, and if it just doesn't go away you should take it back to the AD.

Hi Jokr . You stripped the outer AR coating on your PO because you used alcohol solvent. That's bad news and sorry that it happened. Being in the eyeglasses business, I see that all the time.....AR coatings coming off the lenses because people use all sorts of chemicals to clean them.

So did your AD removed the rest of the coating? You still have the AR coating underneath the crystal so you should still be ok. I would leave it as is.

Next time, just use mild soap and warm water. Please don't use any kind of chemical or polishing agents on the crystal.

Hello Sixpax.

Yes Now I learn I didn´t know, And it´s my first time I use alcohol gel in my watch Never MOre.

But what it´s the function of AR it´s I already take off??

[SixPak]

Well, Omega's have double-sided AR so the crystal is completely glareproof. The coating is nothing but a very thin film that is applied both underneath and above the crystal. You should still be fine with the top layer removed. I would not worry about it.

Yes it´s was very, very good, the flavor palmetto.

Sixpax, and other members thanks so much!

But another question, I was looking at my watch right now, and Still have one little spot, Should I go to the AD again to try to remove, Or I shouldn´t??

[Gerardus]

I personally think it looks better with only the AR coating under the glass.
Sorte pra vc :)

Obrigado meu Amigo- Thanks mate!!

I am trying to take a pic to show, this little, spot still have, I took 10pics and All didn´t show this spot I am trying to take.

NOW I UNDERSTOOD, About it the Ar it´s so difficult to take pic before it´s was so easy, because the reflection of the lights in my store.

[jokr82]

Ah I forgot to say what the specialist in the Omega AD told me.

Now the alcohol gel in my store have a little moisturizing hands, and the soap either. In My store.

In my home, I wash with soap normal soap, and sometimes with detergent, sometimes with my fingers, sometimes with the cape cod yellow, and sometimes with my fingers and a soft toothbrush.

I took in AD Omega, the specialist told me.

The alcohol gel it´s very abressive to the AR, Or the detergent it´s very agressive to the watch, and I mixed both, not in the sametime of course. But he told too, before it´s already like this But i didn´t see, and was accumulating little by little and the results are what I show before.

[dysondiver]

it must be very strong hand wash ,,, as others have said , clean off the outside ar coat , many watches dont have any anti reflective coatings at all , so all will be grand

[SUBversive]

I understand this was a
Scary moment but seems like you will be okay.

[htc8p]

but of course it gets complicated because you put alcogel

[htc8p]
