I like the Sub non date best but need the date function. I have skinny wrists at 6 ¾" and think the size of the Sea Dweller will be to large. If I get a Sub date will I learn to love the cyclops? Trying to decide before the apparent Canadian price increase (as per dealer) of May 1.

Thanks,
Budge

I like it a lot. Its Rolex signature and most important I can't see the date without it.

Bdiesel570 · 24 April 2014, 08:30 AM

I didn't think I would like it.

A few weeks later and I love it!

I can shoot light at people with it as well! It is rather entertaining while im at work!

iazrollie · 24 April 2014, 08:32 AM

Not a fan. Get a pre-loved SD and avoid the px increase.

jimmyk2014 · 24 April 2014, 08:36 AM

I learned to love it, no date watches are my preference but at work, the date does come in handy. The other bonus is my eyes are going and the cyclops makes reading the date much easier.

Not a fan.

You don't need a date function. You'll get used to not having it soon. It actually helps you think! :-) I have both an Explorer and Sub w/o date, about to add a Daytona.

francis · 24 April 2014, 08:39 AM

Love it..... always have though.

scarlet knight · 24 April 2014, 08:40 AM

I don't like the cyclops. I have it on my polar Exp II, not on my SubC. Like everyone else, I look at my iPhone for the date.

swils8610 · 24 April 2014, 08:50 AM

I love the cyclops. Classic Rolex.

I generally find that you rarely "grow to love" a feature on a watch. If you don't like it before you buy it, you probably won't like it after you buy it.

Get the Sea Dweller.

I love the cyclops. Very useful.

beshannon · 24 April 2014, 09:02 AM

I do not like it and never will

thomaspp · 24 April 2014, 09:03 AM

I like it but funny enough I have fewer clyclops watches now than I did before.

Urosfan · 24 April 2014, 09:04 AM

I like it

Tridor · 24 April 2014, 09:47 AM

I dig the cyclops. Always have.

mjclark32 · 24 April 2014, 09:48 AM

I wanted to take it off for a few months when I first got my sub, now I like it

samsam · 24 April 2014, 10:03 AM

No. It grows on trees!

rofl:

I honestly love the cyclops, but there was a time when I thought it has a dated look to it. Not anymore.

So I guess yes, I became a fan with time.

HL65 · 24 April 2014, 10:06 AM

I like it on the watches that have it and am fine with the ones that don't....It's all good by me.

Watchdog · 24 April 2014, 10:28 AM

To me it sort of signifies Rolex.

crowncollection · 24 April 2014, 10:36 AM

love the cyclops

The cyclops IS Rolex

second time · 24 April 2014, 10:59 AM

I think it's great, a very useful feature. So much so that I would not consider the Tudor Glamour series now that they have done away with it.

landroverking · 24 April 2014, 11:02 AM

If you need a date check out the SD. Clean looks of the Sub with a date.

polarinda · 24 April 2014, 11:08 AM

I got a cyclop on my iphone.

ronricks · 24 April 2014, 11:10 AM

love it. To me it is what makes it a Rolex.

PADI_Diver · 24 April 2014, 11:11 AM

Maybe try the new sd4000? That has a date function and no cyclops. It might not be too big

I like the cyclops but think it looks better on a date just than a sub. That being said, I have a non-date sub and I'm finding I miss the date feature.
