The heart of the question is this:
- When someone purchases a acrylic crystal be it Omega, Rolex, OEM, or aftermarket (shape and dimensions aside) are they the same? Are they all acrylic? Or are there different "grades" of acrylic?
I see mention of standard and high-optic. I also see mention of additives. But that only partially answers my question. I'm interested in know if an aftermarket, acrylic crystal could ever be the same as an Omega, Rolex, etc. Or are Omega and Rolex (and their previous suppliers) using proprietary chemical compounds and additives to transform basic acrylic into something more special.
