    I remember as a kid burning leaves and things with a magnifying glass out in the sun by focusing the sun unto a small spot on the item to be burned. I was reminded of that while looking at my new Seiko. Perhaps the sun's distance away prevents such a focus but it made me wonder if it has...

    Hello Folks! For Sale is my Squale Ceramic 1545, bought from Gnomon a couple of weeks ago. Bought this because of my love for the Cyclops-date-sub design to be a companion watch to the actual sub while traveling but Covid got in the way. So here I am taking calls over my computer without the...

    I am looking to get a new Ginault Ocean Rover 2. However, I can't seem to decide if I should get the date (with cyclops) or no-date version. Initially I disliked the cyclops but after watching a lot of Rolex Submariner/Datejust pictures on Instagram and videos on Youtube, I don't find it an...

    No longer need these. Surprisingly easy to add a lens to that hard to read date. Glue has been opened and used to install a couple lenses, needle tip has not been used. There should be enough glue to mount all 9 of these lenses. Sizes are: 2 ea 5.5 x 4.5 2 ea 7.5 x 6.2 2 ea 6.0 round 5.5 round...

    Rolex Explorer II 216570, Polar Random Serial $7,500 shipped, CONUS ONLY No box, no papers. I prefer Paypal G&S (I'll cover the fees). Back in April, I picked this up from our pal FNFZ4 (Alfred) on a trade. I really had not planned on ever selling it. As such, I got rid of the box (sold...

    I’m buying my first Rolex this week. I’m beyond excited. The guy I’m buying it from is selling a 2003 Sub date, and a Sea Dweller 2004, both full set & similarly priced, so that’s not too important. Basically, I prefer the lack of cyclops, I prefer the fact the SD is a better watch in technical...

    Bought new January 13, 2020 but I am forced to sell this special Casio Marlin because of the WPAC rule of 1 in 1 out. Since I have a watch incoming I must also sell one. This Marlin is special due to the added cyclops magnifier for the date and a tapered Stainless steel bracelet worth more than...

    I am selling a Rolex Sea-Dweller SD43 watch. This watch was purchased in August 2019 at a local Rolex dealer (Box and papers included). The addition of the cyclops and the red text make this a watershed model in the Sea-Dweller line. Microadjusting bracelet is insanely comfortable. I wore it...

  10. Seiko
    This is more or less an obscure model in Seiko's range, and I haven't really seen any reviews on it so far, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Check out more photos and the review here: Pinoy Watch Fan: Seiko Superior SSA001 Flight Computer "Cyclops" in Blue TLDR: This is a pretty unique model in...

    The watch is an aramar arctic marine. It has a japanese miyota 9015 movement and a flat ar-coated sapphire crystal with a cyclops on it. I want to remove the cyclops but have heard stories of people cracking the crystal by using the lighter method. Also, I don't want to ruin the watertight seal...

    For sale or trade: Seiko SSA003J with Yobokies BoR, original rubber strap, all boxes, hang tag, etc. - $250, inclusive Extremely light wear (desk-diving) on the clasp on the bracelet. The case is in very good condition; likely some very light business near the lugs due to strap changes. Has a...
  13. Steinhart
    Good morning everyone, after been lurking this forum for about a month I pulled the trigger on an Ocean 1 Black with ceramic bezel, my first Swiss Automatic. Since i opened the box I've been really caught by how well everything is made and I found proportions, materials and look to be perfect...

    Hello everybody and warm greetings from sunny West Yorkshire. I've been following WUS for a couple of years now, which I must say has been a most time consuming (and expensive) experience. Anyway, I've been changing straps and batteries on watches since I was about seven or eight years old. I've...

    I understand the reasoning behind having a cyclops (magnifying window) above the date window - to allow the user to see the small date more easily. However, I have two problems with them: 1) the date becomes almost impossible to read unless you look at it dead-straight-on; and 2) it is a...

  19. Watchmaking
    I bought a nice watch a while back, but I notice I don't wear it as often as I would if the date were better readable. I have seen many watches with a magnifying bubble over the date exactly for that reason, but as the shape of the watch case is a bit different (tonneau) I will have to resort...
