My old Seamaster gmt great white had a curved sapphire and ar coating on the inside.

The planet ocean has it on both sides and I have picked up some scratches in the coating.

You need to really look for them- it's not like a plexiglass where they are deep and white. You need the light at just the right angle because the coating is microns thick. I found that a good quality carnauba wax once in a while makes them disappear.

Some who have scratched it severely have had it buffed off the outside.

Double ar is crazy good. You can see the dial at all angles. Great fior driving. Downside: brilliant rhodium plated hands are better able to dazzle you in the sun...
