Scratched Refractometer, does it still work?
Hi! I’m currently working as a jeweler in the family business.
I’m enrolled in the GIA gemologist course online and just started my diamond course, I’m already preparing tools for the colored stones and so I dusted off the old Duplex II refractometer we have at the shop.
I noticed the glass has some slight abrasions. Is this still usable?
Pictured above is me using the refractometer on a synthetic emerald. The last image is showing the abrasions.
Thank you!
