For the sake of educating all of us on crystals I think the OP should chime in with a document from Rolex on Rolex letter head stating the crystal is in fact counterfeit or aftermarket as claimed. Counterfeit in this case imho is a word used to add shock and aw...lol. The crystal does not have any branding on it like the new style LEC crystals so i don't think you can counterfeit a non marked piece of glass but i learn something everyday and maybe i am wrong? The oysterquartz in question i believe is from the 80's and during this time rolex did not make there own crystals. So if they did not make there own crystals and there is no branding on them who can tell?Since the OP has been to rolex and is getting the watch serviced there he can post pictures of the letter that states the crystal is counterfeit (maybe they can explain in detail how they came to this conclusion) as claimed and we can all learn from this. Again i have no interest in this other than learning about crystals and how to tell them apart.
