I can't say for certainty about yours, but, yes, my 164 has the same distorted effect at certain angles. Overall, not as legible as a Rolex-style cyclops, sure, but there's something to be said for the smooth crystal. I'm a fan.

My 244 has a similar issue. When I first got it I was upset then did a little research and it appears to be feature : )

While not ideal in all conditions and angles of viewing, the "reverse" cyclops has its advantages in being smooth across the face of the crystal.

+1 on the like scale.
