I posted this on another thread recently....I was through Heathrow a few weeks ago and I am convinced that every single new model they had in stock at Mappin and Webb appeared to have the AR coating to the underside of the cyclops....I think they've adopted it across the whole range now

yes according to the rolex tech at my RSC rolex has put in AR cyclops across the line as of the start of the year, (same time as when they started random serials) but again this is word of mouth :P

My 'M' DJ purchased a couple of months seems to have it. My 'V' Explorer II also purchased a couple of months ago doesnt seem to have it.

They are definitely putting AR under the cyclops on the new watches.

They had a couple at my AD when I bought my DJ. In fact the fluted bezel DJ that convinced me to order my SS DJ had an AR cyclops.

Mine didn't come with one and I was a little disappointed, but I didn't specify, so I'm good with the one I got.
