I was referring to pretty much all rolex crystals in general. as for the 41, i am sure we will be able to see more pics once people start getting their hands on them and posting pictures, for now all you see is dealer photos which do not really show the difference. However, you can show them all this thread: https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/rolex-tudor-replicas/278783-explanation-of-black-hole-effect
It has a ton of great photos showing the difference.
I got you now.
As for the 41sub, I will borrow the watch from the ARF and see it by myself.
What info? No AR on cyclops? I doubt Rolex would describe their crystal as "Sapphire crystal with ther absense of anti glare coating".
AR told me the cyclops doesnt have any AR coating, but I will see by myself when I have it.
Lol, attention world, our watches are even more basic now. But dont worry they will cost more. Haha
something like this?
Since the dial is now black so the "black" could be the dial color, need to see the gen, will get it from ARF in a couple of days

Dear Angus, if they, with a gen in hand, in ten years have not been able to put a good crystal with a good Ar and good black hole on the cyclops, why would they now be able to create a good black hole effect by giving it a photo of a gen? come on, mate, let's not fool ourselves. the truth is that as long as no factory will put a good crystal with a good black hole effect Arf has no interest in doing this. in fact, as you wrote above, the new sub Arf v.4 will have a vr movement, because obviously ZZf is taking away a large slice of the market with its beautiful excellent ootb subs. when ZZf or other strong competitor will put a crystal with a good black hole then Arf will do it too. instead, in the old sub 16610, where Arf has no rival, Arf will continue to put that shit of Sh movement, as people buy it anyway. Same goes for the Datejust (although the new Vrf Dj41 seem very well made and, therefore, I think they will take away a good slice of the market from Arf).
Remember, Rolex and Rep factories are one and the same (according to my earlier conspiracy.) That essentially makes everyone who liked your first post a Rolex employee ? Looking forward to the bonus
I saw several YT videos showing the new Rollies and they looked like having an AR coating.

It doesnt look like a strong AR to me, if there is an AR coating

To do what? the Ar on the cyclops or to put a vr movement in other models as well, in addition to the sub v.4?
They do AR their cyclops, I am just trying to tell them about the black hole effect thing.
They will update others with the VR movemoment but they will update the SUB first and the others later since they still have a lot of SH3135 with them.
Honestly the pic doesnt look like having an AR, but I will get the gen soon and we will know soon.

Angus, beyond the cyclops black hole, gen crystals have an outline or frosting ring around the cyclops for a halo effect.
