M serial have the crown on the cristal or not?

[VDENTALS]

I HAVE 3 M SERIAL AND THEY DONT HAVE THE ENGRAVMENT ON THE CRISTAL I BUY ALL 3 WITH ROLEX AD

They are there. You need a 10x magnifier or the perfect conditions to see it. I've never seen mine, but I know it is there.

[SLS]

shine a flashlight at the edge of the crystal and you will see it.

They should be there. The new Milgauss does not have it though.

Mine is there on my sub-date. I thought it was a smudge the 1st time I saw it.

[Chris B]

Which models do you have?

If non cyclops they could be anywhere but at the 6 position.

I'm sure you'll find them

Only the GV doesn't have it.

I also could not see it on the DSSD.

i couldn't see it on my gmt2c using that trick. i had to use a very strong magnifying glass and get the light just right, even then it took about 5 minutes.

[CKay]

Yes, it is there but you can't see it.

I can't see it too at my SS YM

It's there, I assure you. I've seen it with great difficulty on my Platty, but the "silvery" background makes it very tough to see.

IT has it on my "M" Daytona but you need a loop to see it. Sunlight helps immensly

[Parachrom]

Well my Sd just came off Service, I paid to have them change the crystal...but alas I cannot find any crown laser etched or not regardless of what loupe I use or magnification.

Your new crystal should have the coronet with an "S" in it, for service replacement, like this one. It's really difficult to see.

[daveathall]

I have seen mine a couple of times, cant find it now though, and I know where it is.

[f16570]

Follow these instruction.
Shine a 5,000,000 candle light fronm the gable end of the crystal at midnight on the rising equinox of Venus, and that puppy will be as visible as a pimple on your nose.

[Trurolexer]

I have three M too. But only one I can see the laser crown. My sub ND.

[steel4me]

Unless this was your AD, you should have crowns on all Ms:

Yep, shine it the Flashlight at 12 toward 6 and look across the crystal at a slight angle. You'll see it.

[Z-Sub]

Did you find the crowns yet? They should be there except the GV Milgauss.
You need to have light coming from an angle almost parallel to the crystal to really get it to show.
It is especially hard to see with a white dial.
Good luck

People always say that but I can see mine when the light hits it while my hand is on the steering wheel in my car. I have good vision, but it's not 10X loupe vision.
