ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ก.ค. 2018
- Today we will explore 3 different crystal types; flat, single dome and double dome. We will show and explain the geometry of each, and how they change the look of your watch.
Is one better than the other? Is a Double Dome better than a Single Dome? We will answer these questions today.

Thank you for watching.
I chuckled when you’re like “amazing how you find these things” then I read the text.
Truth is truth
I think I like single dome crystals the best. The crystal is just another equally important piece to a watch, and so I like to see its influence.
very good explenation, the only thing that's missing is how the light is reflected in the two types of domed crystals, as you get different reflection images with them.
You’re very good at what you do (articulate, no BS, knowledgeable, and kind.) Thank you. 👍 I’ve purchased 2 watches from you and your customer service is very good as well!
Thanks so much Paul.
Totally agree! And also made 2 purchases and can vouch for that too. Was actually just telling my friend that this was the Goulet Pen kinda service and similar great personalities (Brian Goulet, the face of Goulet Pens) for those of you that are also happen to be into fountain pens lol

No magnification without representation! Excellent video as always. Greetings from Spain
I'm always surprised at the substantial thickness of these crystals. Great vid, very clear presentation!
A great video to demonstrate EXACTLY what I was curious about! The structure and optical effects of flat, dome, and double dome. Thanks!
Haven't found this explanation elsewhere, so, thank you and super helpful.
Dude... seriously, I’m just getting into watches.
I feel guilty I’m not paying for these lessons. This info is solid gold.
Thank you for posting 👍🏻
Thank you Mark. Love your videos, very informative and relevant!
SUPER helpful!! Thanks Mark!!
Thank you. Great explanation. I actually love the distortion the double dome produces.
I really enjoy your videos. Very informative and easy to understand. This one was just what I needed to know. Thank you!
that explanation about the double-dome was super helpful...just the information I was looking for....thanks!
Amazing video! The magnification of a single dome and the distance was exactly what I wanted to see. Very informative. Thank you!
Thanks Mark for another informative video. I've learned a lot from watching your series.
Marc, I love when I search for something related to watches you have a video. I'm on your site right now buying crystals and I search up single vs double, and here you are with a video. Thanks.
Thanks for the great explanation!
Excellent explanation, thank you!
Deciding to mod my skx011. This is SOOOOOO helpful!!
Very cool. Thank you for the information!
Thank you for this video as well as others, which explains what stuff is. Your channel is saving me a lot of time searching for information. For What Its Worth, I think your watch reviews are the best, and Ive seen a lit of them. Very down to earth and you explain the features very well.
Great and succinct explanation. Thanks!!
this video is fantastic! Perfect explanation
I just purchased a custom watch case with Saphire lens. Now I know another layer to the topic. Thank you !
great explanation as I'm trying to decide what to order.
Great video. I’m glad I watched it
I've been waiting for you to do this video for a while. You gave me what I needed to know and see. Thank You. !! Always Love these learning videos you do.
Thanks for taking the time!
As can be expected from Marc, it is again an excellent video.
If there is a “watch professor”, it is for sure Marc.
Thank you Mark. Missed this video when you released it, and it is super useful - I always thought double domed was convex on both sides (wrong). Thank you for educating me :)
Great video, No BS and very informative
Single dome for the win!
Really enjoy learning about watches from Marc. Seems like when I google how to do something with a watch a video of his pops up in my searches. Lol! I even bought a Orient Kamasu coin bezel adaptor Long Island Watch created recently and love the product and how it made me love my Orient even more.
Great video. I can't tell if I like single or double better!
Great video. That domed sapphire crystal sure is a nice upgrade.
It sure is!
Thanks for splaining it for me. I knew there was a double/single dome but I didn't know EXACTLY what that meant,if that makes any sense. Once again great video. You must have been a teacher in your other life.
Random piece of paper routine was funny. Thanks again for this and all your videos.
Very informative and useful video, thank you
Another excellent and informative video. Thanks!
Thank you.
Excelent explanation!!!
Excellent video. I should have known you have the answers.
Good video thank, very well explained finally!
Thanks for the demonstration. I knew the difference between double domed and single domed but never had the opportunity to compared.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this. Had I not seen this video I would almost definitely have, at some point in my life, bought a double domed sapphire crystal thinking it caused extra distortion (which I like) and been in for a rude surprise
Very useful! Thanks for this video!!
Welcome!
Great explanation.
Thanks! Appreciate the simple video explaining the differences. I've been thinking of upgrading my Mako II with saphire, and this better explains my options.
You are very welcome.
Thanks Mark! My SK007 that I got from LIW got condensation in it (probably my fault) and I was looking into upgrading the crystal and possibly the movement which doesn't work anymore. This was very helpful. Thanks!!
Really helpful - thank you :)
Great and informative video Mark!!
Thank you!
Great video!!
Fantastic video.
Wow, I really like that Squale. The Orange and brown looks good.
It sure is cool looking.
Single dome for vintage style watches! It mimics classic acrylic crystal distortion. Double dome for modern style watches. Thanks for the explanation Mark
Im a single dome kinda guy. Like the random peice of paper you found blowing around out there in Montauk!
LOL, thank you.
Awesome vid!
nice vid Mark...thanks and keep 'em coming
welcome!
Kudos. I like your channel and your store. You try to give people what they want, which is a bit like reading the stocks. However you are good at it. I like that you offer components to people who want to do their own mod. work, or offer products that you've modified yourself.( Love that Orient ) I'll be ordering an Orient, strap, and a sapphire crystal in a few days. I've been an employee for various companies over the last forty years. It's nice to see you tell the " big guy" thanks, but no thanks, I don't need to depend on you now, good day.
Your work ethic is good. You're prompt with your customers, try to give them an idea of what is the best for their money through your YT channel. A truly difficult task requiring extensive knowledge of your products. You also are courteous. An important but often disregarded part of a transaction. The phrase " A pleasure doing business with you " fits here nicely.
What to say again & again, mark you rock with your videos, keep up the work 👍
Thanks! I will!!!!
Thanks!
Very educational, as always. Not sure why two people have given this video a thumbs-down. Are they documentary filmmakers or something? I guess even gifts make some people unhappy.
Basically everything I know about watches comes from this series, I wish Marc would do more of these or redo some old ones.
I have analysis paralysis and can't decide which of the three to get... I have put so many different combos in my long island cart, but I just can't pick. I'm driving myself crazy, but loving your videos.
really interesting vid mark. thank you
Thanks!
Thanks, I was just on LIW site and didn't know the difference or which to order
Great vid thanks
Awesome video!
Thanks so much.
I like ar coating and single domed. I like distortion of lens it adds a cool look even if it's a diver.
Hi Mark! This video was very informative and fun to watch! I also want to thank you for being so professional on email. I was the person who's srpb41 cocktail got stolen by the customs. Thank you one million times. I'm definitely going to buy my next watch from you.
Hope the next one makes it!!!
Long Island Watch hope so to! It's in Sweden now!
Thanks Mark....
You are welcome.
This guy's got a great sense of humour.
I believe there's another difference : if you've got a single dome and a double dôme with blue AR and you look at the watch at certain angle on single dôme you can clearly see a flash of the blue AR while on the double dome the AR coloring won't be seen as much.
Let me know what you think about this.
I am now a fan of double domes.
Nice demonstration Marc. I can't say why, but I have always liked the distortion from single domed, even if the double domed is generally considered better.
I think I do agree with you.
great content, like
LOVE the strap on the watch you showed with the double dome crystal!
Does it come with that watch or is it one someone can purchase for another watch?
Great video! I wonder what the reflective properties are between these, I've heard flat has too much reflection, which a dome addresses. Does that mean the distortion people love in Omega Speedmaster acrylic crystal is more from the shape than the material???
Hey Mark always love the video. Curious to ask what type of crystal is on the 6105 captain willard have?
hi very interesting and well explained. however does the double dome have convex or concave on the back?
Excellent video. I was surprised that the double convex lens had no magnification and I actually studied optics in college! But, that was back in the late 60s. Excellent demo! Not a bit boring.
It's a blast from the past.
The inner dome is concave with the same radius of curvature, cancelling out nearly all the front surface magnification.
Your understanding from college was correct, the DD crystal is a meniscus: convex top, concave bottom. If convex on both sides (biconvex) then it would magnify about twice as fast than the single dome (plano convex). Meniscus lenses are often used for aberration correction from the difference between the side 1 and side 2 radii.
I used to think double domed has more curvature then single domed.. great video
It can, or it doesn't have to. It's all in the underside curvature.
Good content Marc. Would you kindly take time to explain sometime, “ Sapphire Coated ” or “ Diamond Coated ” Crystals and exactly HOW this is achieved?? Thanks!!
I think that's mostly gimmick, with limited additional hardness.
I think I'm a double-dome man, ha ha. Thanks for the explanation, I'm just getting into watches and the terms can be somewhat confusing.
Other than the Seiko mentioned, how do I know if a watch I like can have a crystal replaced? (I'm not talking about something rare - just a Citizen or Bambino or something.)
Hey Marc where would be a good place to find a crystal replacement for Citizen watches?
Great video! One question, which has the least amount of reflections/glare without AR coating?
Flat
So the side with the rough edge goes into the case first or vice versa?
Quick question I have a caliber 6N42. Is there a caliber I can upgrade it to.
Re: AR coating. I see a clear AR option and a blue AR option. Are these comparable in quality and function? Would there be any visible difference on a double dome sapphire crystal, as I understand the blue flash does not occur on a double dome? On a flat sapphire crystal, I assume that there would be a flash from the blue, but not from the clear. Optics fascinate and confuse me. Thank you for splaining how a double dome crystal works optically.
Curious as to if there are any changes in the sound of the watch with the removal of some of the sapphire crystal. I hear guitar players talk about tonewoods and am concerned that a single dome crystal may tick too loudly for my tastes...but not sure if the removed material would give the sound more space to amplify? Love your watches by the way :)
I like the single dome best I have one on my Hamilton khaki I like the magnification.
See, something for everyone!
Thank you for another informative video. I was wondering about this topic a couple weeks ago.
Do you think you'll ever get the Orient Analyst back in stock. I bought a 2 tone one from you for my dad. I always thought I'd buy an all silver colored one for myself one day, but now I can't find one.
I would hope so, it was a hot item.
How do you decide the crystal thickness? If too thick the crystal pertrudes higher than the bezel and if too thin it creates a trench for dirt. I am asking for my SRPB53, which a am looking to buy a double dome for.
Can the bambino crystal be replaced for any dome saphyre crystal? That huge dome is like they call it a "scratch magnet".
Great video! Will you be offering the SKX009 with the double domed sapphire Crystal and a strap code super engineer bracelet along with the super jubilee?
No, sorry :(
I feel that some day and some how i will upgrade my F 91 w with saphire glass.
LOL
Do you know if what sapphire crystal thickness is associated with a certain water resistance? That is what pressures can a 0.8mm, 1.0mm or a 2.0mm hold back before it gives. I'll assume that a dome or double dome will make it stronger, but by how much?
Can the slim dome fit on a regular bezel?
Hello, are the double dome crystals size for an SKX007/009 the same as for Seiko Monster? thank you!
hey mark i have a question dose the double dome come in a blue ar...?
