Please take a look.

I am 100% certain and since there are others mentioning as well.

That there are some that has no etched crown.

Definitely checked with magnifiers as well.

But as i've mentioned, we should swap for a gen xtal, i'm planning to do that as well.

Cheers
Shine with the light from your phone over the crystal from the side and it should appear. Normally you shine from 12 and it appears at 6. But it can be located elsewhere.

Yes guys, probably mine was the only defective one then.

Like i say again, i have other rollies and i'm damn well sure i know how to spot the lec.

So stop asking me to check from whichever angle, and just make sure you get your TD to QC well for you if you plan to get this watch.(Whats wrong with getting good QC anyway?)

Else, go gen xtal like me, i've ordered mine from TRF

Peace

[MENTION=83013]smoke[/MENTION] could I easily install a gen date disc on the new YM 3135 ? Or would it take some modding

No It does not. Some of us did not get a Noob with cristal with a LEC, so stop the bitchin' already.

It's very hard to see. After seeing the post I got curious and used my phone light. It is barely visible but there. This is such a minor detail and I would not care if it wasn't there but probably most gen like I have seen. I've only seen my gen lec 16613 a few times over 10 years.

Sorry, but not arguing this anymore. Put it under a magnifying glass and it just isn't there. Doesn't bother me and I really will not obsess over why replica watches from China didn't get EVERY detail right as the original Rolex. Mmmmm...
