  1. Well since that part's being fixed on the v3 the 116610 looks like it's going to be a significant improvement. What about the AR on the cyclops.. how bad is it in every day use?

     

    Unfortunately I have nothing else to compare it with. I had gen sub-c very shortly in my hands before receiving this one. Generally, not too happy with it, it seems to have a blueish hue. 

  2. As described by the previous owner:

     

    What we have here is one of the best examples of the V2 - rehaut engravings are lined up perfectly, date is centered and pearl is 100% in the middle. I have given this watch some slight modding, namely in the rotor and bracelet. The bracelet is really good out of the factory but a few sharp edges here and there sp. on the backside of the middle-links - these have been sanded and polished smooth and the clasp has been slightly worked to get it just like gen. A better and stronger stem has been added to the movement and the rotor has been polished and slightly reshaped to minimize noise - movement has been serviced by my local guy and is now VERY quiet and gen-like in terms of sound. All markers are perfectly aligned on the dial and the crystal has been refitted with a Clark gasket to improve water-resistance - the stock bezel/crystal assembly could actually be pressed in by hand - cyclops is perfectly centered. Bezel operation on this as with most of these is PERFECT and smooth like gen. Really great watch for a small price. Has several scratches and knicks on clasp.
