Hi....just so you know....that "lump of glass" is actually a separate piece of sapphire material affixed to the flat sapphire main crystal. I also wish Rolex gave an option as to not having it installed. I have seen a few Rolex where the cyclops has been knocked off, and the remaining "epoxy"(?) was polished off rather than a new crystal installed or new cyclops added back on. Sad most everyone then thinks the watch is a definite "phony" however! LOL
BTW...the reason the Sea Dweller does not have a "cyclops" window has to do with the added crystal thickness on this watch, i remembe reading somewhere. Seems the thicker crystal interferes with getting the cyclops to focus on ther date number.
