Fitment aside, I'd guess that this applies equally to the Rolex T19, acrylic and solvents do not generally play nice. I have a D39 on a GMT, so far so good, but my thought was that I'd rather put newer acrylic on my watch than 40+ year old acrylic. Having been an avid aquarist in my youth, I can attest that the stuff does not age gracefully.

Ironically, I also have a NOS T19 sitting in a box, but have left it there for the reasons above, but this thread has me thinking maybe I should throw it on my 94010.
