Workshop Engineering Breakdown
High-clarity glass aspheric and pancake optical blocks shift the center of gravity forward onto your nasal bridge and cheekbones. By combining our wide overhead Apache crown strap with contoured rear counter-balance wraps and multi-layer 8mm–17mm face cushions, the Pimax Crystal, Light & Super PU Leather + Fabric Foam Pad Ultimate Upgrade Kit suspends the HMD cleanly across the top of your skull.
