Calling GMT master owners (2022 onwards)..AR Coating

I know Sprite gmt comes with bottom AR coating and apparently, the newer gmt batman/pepsi now also have bottom AR coating..in the past, Rolex would only put the AR coating on the cylops.

To anyone who owns 22 and newer batman or pepsi, can u please check the Rolex logo above the 6 o clock marker and see what logo is imprinted?

I belive the bottom AR looks like this (I have this on my '21 sub and current gen explorer and daytona also now have AR coating on the bottom crystal. I asked my rep and she said only Sprite gmt has bottom AR coating...but of course, she also told me sub doesnt have it either ;).

TIA!

My eyes are not good enough to see the LEC but my BLNR purchased from AD in April of 2022 sure looks like it has the double AR coating to me. Looks just as sharp as my Sub 12 LV that definitely has it and less sharp then my older rmodern watches that def do not have it.

I will have to check my September 22 BLRO. Tough to see in general especially if we are looking for that double ring at the base of the LEC crown.

There's an easy to do it with the iphone...turn on the flashlight and shine it at the 12 o clock marker at an angle . If u hit it correctly, the rolex etching will become more visible.

And then take a picture .....then zoom in the picture and u can see the logo enlarged :). Thats how I confirmed it on my sub date ;)
