I have never seen one of theses without a cyclops. why is seller not replying to messages and addressing this? This watch must have had mods and I can't see Rolex changing that during a service.

I really wish these auctions would include more detailed info. The verbiage on these auctions all follow the same template with very little individual detail, which I think is important for these vintage watches

No cyclops, must not be original crystal. I don’t think the 1680 ever came without cyclops, unless they replaced crystal/plexiglass for servicing, without it
