The crystal can be easily replaced at service time.

Boy, I hate to see that. Scratched crystals drive me nuts. That's the only kind of scratch or scuff that bothers me.

What kind of wall was it?

I'd have to have it changed out moskosh, unless a service was coming up soon.

Sorry about your brush with the wall, Vit.

As others have already said, crystal replacement should be easy.
