Looks awful, I have to say. It doesn't suit the watch at all.

(This is not an anti-cyclops thing; it looks great added to the Heritage Chrono, for instance, and likely would on the North Flag for a Ranger II look.)

Though the mod does look very good and pretty much factory I still prefer it without the cyclops...even if I had a 116610 I'd want the SD sapphire bc it doesn't have it but as stated good job ...looks great

A great improvement! Tudor abandoned the cyclops around 2004, which was a big mistake IMO.

Thank you sir. I imagine the cyclops would look great on the blue Pelagos, too. You might have started a new trend here. This is the first I have seen on this model.
