Eric, did a quick google and found a thread Fr John posted that states the logo is not present on saphire crystals. I've got the saphire sandwich so it appears as that explains why I didn't see it.

But to be honest I have yet to see any of my Rolex LECs yet either. I'm just getting to old and my eye sight aint what it used to be. Either that or my AD has some splaining to do.

I just received my Speedy Pro yesterday, the crystal is flawless, except there is a little mark on the center.

Not a mark at all, definitely the Omega Logo lol

Good luck Matt, and let us know when you get yours.
