Hi there,

My name is Jason I'm posting here for the first time.  I am a Paneristi and own some of them but not any "historical pieces" like the 232 or 249.  I recently come across the Dievas brand I like it very much. 

I am interesting in acquiring a Vintage Kamppfschwimmer and when I check out some old posts, I saw some members here purchased ones with the acrylic crystal but from the Gnomon shop it seems like the only one available now is the sapphire one. 

My question is, is the acrylic version still avalable for purchase?  And how is everyone's take on the sapphire vs acrylic crystal?  Personally I like the sapphire's durability but the way the appearance of the acrylic crytal, where it stands high on the watch, is something I like too.

You can see the difference here:

I would like to hear your opinion on this.  Thanks in advance. thankyou.gif

Best Regards,

Jason
