Seiko 7T34-6A90 - should I change the glass?

[GeorgeClarkson]

Considering if I should change the glass of this otherwise almost perfectly looking Seiko 7T34-6A90. The glass is not chipped, it has pittings and dents, though,and a couple of scratches, which affected only the glass itself, and fortunately not the protruding rotating bezel.

Check the pics I took and let me know your opinion.

It depends on you George. The glass can be polished even with deep scratches but if it slims a little too much, then, yes it must be changed. This is my opinion but maybe not the other members

If it ever comes up for consideration then I think the answer should be "Yes".  Crystals are usually quite affordable and replacing an old one usually makes the biggest difference when it comes to the aesthetic appeal of the piece.

Of course if it's an expensive branded crystal (*cough* Omega) or one that's a bear to fit then I'd leave it alone.

No expensive glass here, it is after all a Seiko.... And I found it for really cheap, so I decided to replace the glass. I know the glass can be polished, but I do not have the tools to do it at the moment. This is mineral glass, so normal scrubbing with a polishing paste won't do it....
