Parts & Modded list:

  • Gen Dial
  • Gen Tachymeter Ring
  • LWO 283 Movement + DD module
  • Double AR Cyclops + Dark Side treatment.
  • Change correct datewheel as close as AP , "Tiny" Aged the datewheel like Gen.
  • Brush finished Date window
  • Black PVD treatment for Date window.

Most of the LWO283 (ETA 2892 base) Movement has White background datewheel, and the fonts is quite off if compare with GEN AP, I changed a better datewheel and did a "Tiny" Aged treatment.

I saw some franken AP project has Double AR cyclops installed on LWO283 + DD module, but there is still a bit reflection on the Date position, I found that the GEN AP Datewindow is not Glossy , so I dismount the date window and make it brush finish, the purpose is reduce the cyclops reflection.

I have Gen Black theme Rubberclad dial set and white theme dial set, I noticed the AP Rubberclad Black theme has Black date window, so Black PVD treatment for my brush finished date window.

Double AR cyclops + Black Side , This cyclops is much better than the Noob Factory latest one, I have compare with my GEN AP, this cyclops quality almost 90% like Gen.

WOW ! Stunning post mate !I am really into AP´s and already had and have some fully modded ones (Blackthemes, Panda and now a Rubberclad) what always bothers me the most is the offlooking date compared to the gen - if the solution is the blacksideed cyclops "Double AR cyclops + Black Side , This cyclops is much better than the Noob Factory latest one" i really would like to try it out ! Where are you located ? Where can i get one of these cyclops ?Regards Bart
