sssurfer Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 Cyborg, the DSN cyclops on his new auto models, like the cyclops on new auto PAMs from other collectors and genuine PAMs, is a recessed cyclops embedded in a sandwich crystal. Trying and replacing is is asking for troubles. Your best option is to live with it until a better cyclops will be designed and produced, then to swap the whole crystal+cyclops ensemble. In the end, it's all but bad. About the dial: it is ok. Also in the gen those parts are white-green, while the other parts are white. If you are afraid that the white-green parts are too green, just think about the lume tolerances on the gen too. DSN 088 is one of the best auto PAM dial around, probably the best. I bet that even a paneristi would not notice any differences.

By the way I love this watch is getting a lot of wrist time I bought two straps from panatime looks fantastic brown and black. cheers
