AR coating

Hi guys!

panerai.com states that the sapphire crystal has anti-reflective coating. Is the crystal coated on both sides or only on the inner side?

Inner side only. Avoids it wearing off.

Yes, Breitling's have both sides of the crystal coated with AR. At certain angles makes the crystal disappear and allows you to see the dial clearly.

Omega's PO line has both sides of crystal with AR, the rest just the inside.
