I dont like the BLUE AR. I think if you are to get one, getting the plain would be better looking, and also, 2.7mm is too thin, If I were to do this again, I would look for a 3.0 mm thick one to match OEM. thanks.
Agreed. Nice work on the install and explanation 🔥
I just found a 3.0mm one and bought it. Why do you think this will matter? The 2.7mm ones are everywhere and cheaper...
@@mattbrown1114do you have a link
Commentary is spectacular! 🤣 “can’t find the hole, story of my life”
Have you found that the watch is still water-proof after changing the crystal? Also, if you don't mind me asking, why do you think the 2.7mm thickness is too thin? I understand that the original mineral crystal is 3mm thick. Does the new slightly thinner sapphire look wrong against the bezel insert compared to the original mineral crystal? I'm planning to swap to sapphire on my son's Duro and I wanted to thank you for the video. It was very informative.
yes still WR. the bezel insert was higher than the crystal after the change. I had to flatten the bezel insert so it is level with the crystal. thank goodness it wasnt ceramic
@@watchhobbywithdannythemedic Thanks for the help! My son and I modded his Duro over the weekend and we're very happy with the way it turned out. We had some trouble releasing the crown and stem, but after a little while, we finally figured it out. The sapphire crystal really worked out nicely.
sure thing! if he is wearing it with the rubber duro strap, I like to heat up straps in boiling water to have the end not stick out.. one day I will make a video..
What is this dudes accent? I cannot figure it out. Is it NY/Long Island + R speech defect? I’m stumped
Where I’m from when we can’t find the hole….
We put some hair on it
😂😂😂😂😂
Yep.That just all but completely blew the waterproof rating. Without replacing the gaskets and having a meter for retightening the case back, I would barely trust it in the shower
I tested it, it was fine.
This video I liked it a lot keep up the great work. WOW very interesting 1st class very kool great info.,, AAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++ again great
The NYC ambiance in the background lmao
I believe this watch not waterproof anymore 😂
It ended up being fine for my purposes, which is like baths showers pool and hottubs.
Do you remember what the diameter of the dial was?
ojh sorry no
I want to file the bezel like you did, can you tell me what size triangle file you used?
I just used a very small one, the exact size dont matter since it is the edge I used that dont change with little size differences
Do you have any tips for my Casio Duro where the bezel now rotates in two directions and doesn’t click at all. ?
sounds like the click spring in the bezel broke, replacing that costs money and time, a new duro is sooooo cheap... buy a new duro!
@@watchhobbywithdannythemedic thanks for the reply!! I figured that was probably it! My old duro will just have a bidirectional bezel now 🤷🏾♂️ kinda cool lol
holy shit dude is a butcher
how thick is the original crystal?
it was slightly thicker than the sapphire replacement, I dont remember.

Wrong glass. Not thick enough. You didn’t silicone the gasket. Also when you replace the crystal you should replace the crystal gasket if you want to retain the WR.
sad isnt it? they sell these marked as for the duro.... the back gasket right? I didnt bother because its a cheap watch, and sure, best practice to change crystal gasket each time... (like if it was a customer's watch) but watch is perfectly fine.
This watch doesn’t use a crystal gasket. Not all watches use one. But from the cavalier nature of how you did this mod from start to finish was an exercise in pure suspense and pins and needles uncomfortableness!!! Hahaha
I know the tool you used works for what you did but it sounds like all that glass scraping is hurting the glass and/or the watch. I've seen a slightly different tool used on Wristwatch Revival that gently bows the glass and the watch just falls out and slides back into place without scraping. Check it out. 😬
that would be for acrylic crystals... bowing sapphire will shatter it
@@watchhobbywithdannythemedic Ahh... Learned something new. Thank you. 😬
Camera is 10000 ft away 🤦🏽♂️
Eres poco cuidadoso al manipular los relojes
Whats the size of sapphire?
i dont remember, but at the end, it was a bit too thin so I dont like it and switched it back
