Is this really DW/xtal stock? It actually looks like gen and not oversized/oblong numbers like CF I have owned or seen here

Gen DW and Crystal. I'm using a 2.7mm Clark gasket. But I think 2.5mm would have been the sweet spot for the magnification. But I'm happy the way it is, I don't wanna touch the bezel assembly too much. That grease is horrible to clean up from the tools and working surfaces lol. I took most of it off but still.
I think I'm going to take the cyclops off my stock V3 - anyone know what I'm going to find under the cyclops? I.e. is there going to be AR mismatch...
I don’t know what you’re going to find under the cyclop, but I can give you my removal tutorial
First I tried without heat, but it didn’t work as it should:
Then I applied some heat which worked much better:
…and voila, cyclop removed:
If the xtal is like gen, then you shouldn't do it. The cyclops have AR above and below the xtal. It will look like this:
Maybe a xtal from a daytona fits. That's a better idea.

Ah thank you so much, no wonder its so gen like, kudos for this awesome franken job.
Was wandering is there a need to change the Gen Dial and Gen Hand Set if you pushing towards super franken GMT? Is there any noticeable different between Clean and Gen dial/hand set? Only info I pick up is the gen dial coronet might appear slimmer compare to clean fat version

Amazing piece. V3 with Deep crystal and slighty sanded gasket. Incredible how the blue/red changes in color.

What noone has mentioned is the easylink on the new version(s) where you can increase/descrease the length of the bracelet 5 mm without tools.
This is a great update. It was far, I mean far too tight before but now it snaps/releases great, like gen. Well done CF... Thank you for not have me drill part this anymore
