Besides the Omega Speedmaster Professional in Hesalite, are there many other watches in the "luxury" price range (say > $1000 or $2000) with acrylic crystals?

Whenever the Speedmaster Hesalite vs sapphire debate comes up, there are Hesalite fans who love the look of Hesalite more than sapphire, and choose Hesalite primarily for its aesthetics. If there are so many Hesalite fans, why is it that I rarely hear demand for acrylic crystals on other vintage style modern watches like Omega Seamaster 300 Heritage, Rolex Submariner, Rolex Daytona, Tudor Black Bay 58 etc....?

The JLC Tribute to Polaris Memovox 2008. Granted, it was produced as a close replica of the original 1968 release.
