How to remove a cyclop, here is how it looks>>>

when I try that on one of my DateJustīs.

I start with my cyclop remover kit.



Pull it up in my full size Bergeon case holder.



And start thr work.



Damn, Rolex have quality glue so I have to warm it up a bit.



Now I hope it will come off.



Ouups, not so good.



What do you think, did I have to change crystal? Or can it
be polished?

JJ, you can tell its fake by the grain on the top lugs. Rolexes don't have a grain like that its either polished lugs or brushed.
