Help, Rolex sapphire glass etched crown location!

[babyccino]

Hello all,

Newbie here!

Recently purchased a 126519LN Ghost from Japan reseller in Nakano broadway (time walker watch) as a full set minus the white swing tag.

We later on got home to realise the laser etched crown is sitting in the 7 o clock position unlike other Rolex I got at 6 o clock. Should this be a red flag? The watch itself seems ok where the weight feels and other details are impeccable.

Tried to attach the image.

Thanks guys.

I can't speak as to the authenticity of the watch, but I have heard this can happen because there is no cyclops to align the crystal, so sometimes the LEC is off a little.

Thanks for the feedback nic, I’ve been lurking around the forum and Reddit and also read the LEC maybe off due to no cyclops but seems to be rare due to the rolex QC process. Seems peculiar to me, as I bought grey there is always going to be some ambiguity.

I understand.

Exactly that the most important bit is the watch and not a LEC that's very very difficult to see no matter where it is on the crystal.

Nothing to be concerned about

This sometimes happens, enjoy the watch!
