Polarizing Filter for LCD Display

Post15 Apr 2009, 00:31

Hi everyone,
I wondering if I could get some advice about replacing the polarizing filter on a few of my LCD watches? I was reading a thread on the pocketcalculatorshow website and how one of their members bought a sheet of tinted polarizing film from a vendor on the net and replaced a damaged filter on his watch.
My thoughts were to cut-to-size a piece of this film and simply put it over the LCD display to make the digits appear more dark and crisp. Would this work?
If so, are there any sources for this film but in a clear sheet and not tinted?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
