The Geralt glasses in Cyberpunk 2077 are the Professor’s Spectacles, and you get them from a hidden Witcher 3 package added by Update 2.5. Reply to the new contact Ariadne and accept her brand ambassador offer, skip 24 hours with the Skip Time menu, then open the box to the left of the entrance in V’s apartment in Megabuilding H10, in Little China, Watson. The same package holds a Sihil sword, a Boar Carver knife, an Ursine Jacket and Ursine Pants. However, if you choose “Send to Spam” in your first conversation, the package never arrives.

What the Professor’s Spectacles Are
The Professor’s Spectacles are the glasses Geralt can win at the auction in The Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone. In Cyberpunk 2077 they appear as an eyewear item, and Gamer Rant notes that they look the same as in the Witcher game.
CD Projekt Red did not mention them in the official patch notes. Players found them after Update 2.5 launched, and outlets credit the player vinalxo for tracking them down. As a result, the items arrive as a surprise drop, not a marked quest.
All five items are cosmetic or collectible, with no stat changes listed in the guides I found. The glasses go in a head slot. One guide names it the BD slot, the second one under Head, but I saw that detail on only one site, so check your inventory.
The Five Witcher Items in the Package
Most outlets agree on five items in the Ariadne package:
| Item | Type | Witcher 3 link |
|---|---|---|
| Professor’s Spectacles | Glasses | Hearts of Stone auction prize |
| Sihil | Iconic sword | Modeled on the dwarven sihils of The Witcher |
| Boar Carver | Knife | Like the knife Geralt used to take trophies from slain monsters |
| Ursine Jacket | Jacket | School of the Bear gear |
| Ursine Pants | Pants | School of the Bear gear |
One outlet, Insider Gaming, lists seven items, adding boots and a Witcher T-shirt. Other guides do not mention them, so treat those two as unconfirmed. The knife also appears as Boar Cleaver on one site, and I use Boar Carver, which matches the most guides.
A separate older Witcher reward exists too. The MyRewards round in 2020 gave the Wild Hunt Jacket and Geralt’s Gwynbleidd sword, so do not confuse that set with the Ariadne package.
How to Get the Professor’s Spectacles Step by Step
The whole process takes a few minutes of real time. Here are the steps:
- Install Update 2.5. The package only exists on version 2.5.
- Wait for Ariadne’s text. After the update, a new contact named Ariadne messages you about new clothing brands.
- Answer her messages. Chat with her, and do not choose “Send to Spam.”
- Accept the brand ambassador offer. She texts you about this after the first batch of messages.
- Skip 24 hours. Open the Skip Time menu and wait a day, then look for a message saying a free package has been delivered.
- Go to your apartment. Travel to V’s original apartment in Megabuilding H10, Little China, Watson.
- Open the box. It sits to the left of the entrance, inside the apartment.
- Collect all five items. Equip the clothing and glasses from your inventory.
Gamer Rant describes the package as sitting by the front door inside the apartment, and Hold to Reset places it in a box to the left of the entrance. Both fit, so look near the door.

The Ariadne Text Choice: Brand Ambassador vs Spam
The key choice happens in the first conversation. Several guides stress the same point:
| Choice | Result |
|---|---|
| Reply and accept the brand ambassador offer | The package arrives |
| Choose “Send to Spam” | The package never arrives |
Because of that, read her messages and avoid the spam option. If you already marked her as spam, the guides I read give no way to undo it, so a reload from an earlier save is the likely fix. I did not verify that method, so test it on a backup.
How to Skip 24 Hours
Skipping time is the step that trips people up. Here is how to do it:
- Open your menu.
- Select the Skip Time option.
- Choose 24 hours.
- Wait for Ariadne’s second message about the package.
Gamer Rant describes the second message as arriving after a few in-game days, while other guides say one day of skipped time is enough. So if no text arrives after 24 hours, skip another day and check your messages again.
The Photo Reward
After you collect the items, Ariadne may ask for a photo of V wearing them. The photo is optional, but it pays out:
- Take the photo in Photo Mode while V wears the gear.
- Send it to Ariadne.
- A report says you receive 4,300 eddies.
- Afterward, Ariadne says the brand dislikes your reputation, so it will not work with you further. She tells you to keep the gear.
The 4,300 figure comes from one outlet, EGW, while Keengamer only says there is an additional cash reward. So confirm the amount in game.
Why the Package Is Not Appearing
A few problems come up in the guides:
| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| No texts from Ariadne | Check that Update 2.5 installed, then keep playing |
| You chose Send to Spam | The package is not sent, so reload an earlier save if you have one |
| Mods are on | Some modded players did not receive the gear, so turn mods off before the quest |
| No package message after skipping time | Skip another 24 hours and check again |
| You are at the start of a new game | Egw reports you can claim the items even at the very start of a new playthrough |
The mod issue comes from a report by EGW, and it is not an official statement from CD Projekt Red.
Do You Need The Witcher 3?
No. The guides agree that the Ariadne package works entirely inside Cyberpunk 2077 on version 2.5, and you do not need to own The Witcher 3. The older MyRewards gear is the one that needs a linked account.
Tips for Collecting the Gear
These tips are my suggestions based on the guides:
- Back up your save first. A wrong choice with Ariadne is hard to undo.
- Read her messages. The brand ambassador option is the one you need.
- Skip time in 24-hour steps. It saves you from missing the text.
- Go straight to H10. The package sits inside your apartment.
- Take the photo. It earns extra eddies.
Common Mistakes
- Marking Ariadne as spam. The package never arrives.
- Searching the open world. The glasses are not a map pickup.
- Playing with mods on. Some players missed the gear.
- Expecting a patch note mention. CD Projekt Red did not list them.
- Mixing up the old MyRewards set. It is a different reward.
Conclusion
The Professor’s Spectacles are a free Geralt-style cosmetic hidden in Update 2.5. Accept Ariadne’s brand ambassador offer, skip 24 hours and open the box in your Megabuilding H10 apartment. Everything here is accurate as of October 22, 2026, and CD Projekt Red or the community may confirm more details soon.
