Congratulations guys... How do you feel about the cyclops on this model? I'm interested to see how many have it removed.

And cover up the date wheel to make it a "true divers' watch" while you're at it? ;-)

The cyclops is part of the watch. The cyclops is Rolex. Personally, I think it's great on the SD50.

Just picked up mine, love the watch but that bloody cyclops is the only reservation that I have. A 'dweller shouldn't have a wonky eye!!

Rumour is that it will be limited in numbers as it's a 50th Anniversary model and then the next dial will be white lettering only.

Other rumour is that there was a mistake in allocation so a lot of those bound for the US ended up in the UK...believe of that what you want, I dunno!

Not necessarily mate, I'm not knocking the watch. I actually quite like it but 43mm would be too big for me personally. The reason why I asked is because in terms of the history of the Sea Dweller, the cyclops is a big change.

If you are being that decision on pictures, definitely try to get one on your wrist. Im not a big guy, and don't have large wrist by any means, but the SD43 feels great on the wrist and doesn't look out of place. If its based on personal preference or experience, more power to you though.

I would agree. I love the added cyclops. This is personally one of my favorite watches.
