Thanks guys. @Ryan This was my first Rolex. I have been a customer of this AD for a few years. My wife likes to buy jewelry online, have it mended or restored from the AD and then sell after she has enjoyed the pieces. We love this jewelry store, and although we aren't spending big money, we are regular customers. Additionally, I bought a Tudor BB58 back in January of 21, and my wife was able to buy an OP last year as well.

Congratulations on your first Rolex and welcome to the club.
It’s still one of my favorites in my humble collection. To answer you’re question about the AR and getting a good picture of your LE crown on the crystal do it like this and just zoom in as close as you can with your camera the angled light source really makes it pop.

Thanks for the technique. I’m kinda embarrassed about these photos, but best I can tell it has AR under the crystal.

Great first attempt it’s all in the angle. Once you get the crown to light up you just have to get a straight on capture. If you take it from an angle it will look distorted. Good luck
