Stain on my Cyclops
A couple days ago I noticed a clear/blue dot on my cyclops. I tried getting it off with dish soap and Veraet watch cleaner but its still there. I haven't done anything out of of the ordinary (swimming, washing hands, etc) so I cant think of what may have caused it.
Any ideas on what it is or how I can get it off? The watch is only 6 months old, so the worst case scenario is sending it to the NYC RSC. |

Very strange... I wonder if something got in between the crystal and cyclops? Does it appear to be on the cyclops or under it?

Couldn't it be a problem with the internal anti reflective coating of the cyclop maybe ?

I thought it may be the AR coating as well.
