Quick question about my 8926C *Updated with pics*

I don't know much about this Ken !..However, after seeing Trevors handy work
on his Oniss a while back..I like how the watch looks after the cyclops is
gone..it really does make the dial stand out more ! Really cool looking..but
I'd probably end up cracking the crystal !

nice to know it can be done. I wonder if all crystals with the cyclops can be removed.

I would venture to guess, YES. I saw a tutorial at another site on a Rolex. I would imagine that all of the watch companies affix their cyclops in a similar fashion.

BTW - I actually dislike the cyclops and it is one of the things that steer me away from a watch...unless I get brave like Trevor and take matters into my own hands

Here are a few links that discuss cyclops removal...

This one has the inside cyclops. Clearance could be an issue with some models but I wish more companies did this.

The watch really looks good now Ken. I may need to try removing one myself.
