The Cyclops picture thread

I understand not all of us are fans of the Cyclops, but this thread is for those of us that are.

For Sub ND and all you symmetry fans, please look away now!

For everyone else please stay here and let's celebrate the Cyclops with some pics................

Alright. It's my turn...
Ever seen a mini magnifying glass on a subdial to enlarge the date ?
How about a cyclops built intra-crystally within the sapphire glass ?
Cyclops fitted within the Acrylic crystals creates less distortions when seen from different angles
Have you seen a cyclops placed on the underside of the sapphire crystal like this Panerai?Or cyclops placed directly over the dial

A shot under the Cyclops just as a reminder of small the actual date window really is.
Then one showing the Cyclops doing its job - what a difference...

I know the "purist" heads explode over this, but my watch, like/need the cyclops so don't care (and yes, it looks off centered, but that is the angle of the camera).
