HauteHippie Posted December 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Please count me in for 2. One AR and one non-AR if available. This will be use on a 063. BTW first post. Thanks Non-AR only. I'm not having any coated. The best time and place for this is after having installed it so that the entire crystal with the cyclops can be coated together. On PAM models that didn't have AR on the crystal, the cyclops shouldn't have AR either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HauteHippie Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Not too late for anyone!!! A minor delay came from the manufacturer late last week when they decided I needed to tweak the specs. I have done so, and resubmitted so things are back on track... Hopefully we will see these this month, but if not, probably early February. As far as installation goes, I highly recommend an experienced watchsmith.

HauteHippie Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Some updates have been posted back at the top of the thread in the initial post. FYI! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Chieftang, it would be great if your lens shop would reccomend the best adhesive for both glass and sapphire... They recommend a product called "Crystal Clear" by Duro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK471 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Man, somehow I lost track of this thread for several weeks. It's good to see that the project is moving forward nicely. Hypothetically speaking, if a friend had an appointment with a certain Canadian watchmaster in early to mid-February, let's call him Twiggy, do you think I-- er-- my friend, might have the cyclops in time?

HauteHippie Posted January 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Man, somehow I lost track of this thread for several weeks. It's good to see that the project is moving forward nicely. Hypothetically speaking, if a friend had an appointment with a certain Canadian watchmaster in early to mid-February, let's call him Twiggy, do you think I-- er-- my friend, might have the cyclops in time? Well, I can certainly ship directly to Rob for you. There was a slight delay about a week ago when I had to slightly modify the specs based on the lens shop's feedback. But after I resubmitted the updated specs they told me that they would expedite the job. We'll just see. They should arrive in line with your timeframe. Of course, if there is any manufacturing mistake or other issues with the cyclopes when they arrive, then all bets are off. Cross your fingers and just hope for the best!

HauteHippie Posted January 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Heard from the lens shop today, and they've informed me that the cyclopes are on schedule to ship in 2 weeks. At that time I will be (slowly) making my way down the list of interested parties and sending PMs with payment details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
