How to replace the watch crystal on a Noob factory watch?
Introduction: As an important component protecting the front of the watch, the crystal of an N factory watch is the part that is in contact with the outside world for the longest time and is also the most vulnerable to damage from external impacts and friction, such as cracks, breakage, or falling off. At this time, we need to choose to replace it as soon as possible. So what issues should we pay attention to when replacing the crystal?
Method for replacing the watch crystal on a Noob factory watch:
When replacing a watch crystal, the first thing we should understand is the size of the crystal, namely the inner and outer diameter dimensions. The outer diameter is the most important and requires a 100% exact fit. A slightly smaller inner diameter is not a major issue, but it must not be larger, because the retaining ring of the watch is open and can be adjusted appropriately. Why is it said that the outer diameter can be neither too large nor too small? This is because if the outer diameter of the crystal is too large, it will not fit into the case; if the outer diameter is too small, there will be gaps, allowing dust and other dirt to enter the watch, which affects both usability and aesthetics.
Next comes the replacement procedure. During replacement, first place the crystal directly into the recess of the case. The method is to remove the damaged crystal, clean the recess area thoroughly, fit the tension ring, and then place the new crystal into the recess. Once it is three-quarters in, support the case back with your fingers and firmly press the crystal with your thumb to make it enter the case recess until it is fully seated. If you have professional tools, it is best to use a case press, as the force applied is more even. Therefore, the size of the crystal must be chosen correctly, because an incorrect size may cause the crystal to break. Finally, you would lose more than you gain and have to buy a new crystal for replacement.
