Hej Butch, thank you for the advice. Your Hermetic looks nice, but I´m hooked on SSTs and Astrographics. You´re right, it´s not easy to find the parts. Scrached the crystal on my Astrographic SST with the "wooden" dial last week, but I was lucky, some guy in Australia had just that one NOS. After the replacing of the crystal I´m never going to use that one at work. That´s why I´m looking for some other piece. P
