Rolex Service Center Crown Replacement
I just picked up my 2006 116263 Turn-O-Graph from service at the Dallas Service Center (took 4 weeks and 5 days total, $990 total). I requested to have the crown replaced as the old one was dented. However, I noticed that the crown with flat line that was originally installed was replaced with a two dot one. Not that this is a big deal of course but I always thought on the Twinlock crowns, the two dot ones only came on the white gold models? I was always under the impression that Rolex replaces crowns only with the same replacement parts? Appreciate any input you can provide.

All it means once the crowns were just gold capped over SS on TT watches non monobloc , now there are solid gold but have a SS sleeve in centre attached to the winding stem hence monobloc.
