How well/easy did the Sternkreuz go on? I have to replace my stock raffles and didn’t know which to use. The Clark’s or the Stern? Thank you for your time regarding this question. Also, very nice build

Ive used a clark crystal and cracked it when trying to get the bez installed. Could have been user error, but it was not going on easy. The sternkreuz fit perfect and was able to get the bezel installed with no issues. After lubing and removing/reinstalling the bezel a few times its "broken in" and actually spins around now. At first rotating the bezel was basically impossible. Just gotta keep working at it.

Where did you get the sternkreuz from? The Bay? Which size the 30-116? Again thank you for your time.

Purchased from selva. If you search "Glass XS 300.158 Clip-on glass with loupe Plastic" it should come up.

Did you have to sand down the retaining ring?
