It is very difficult to see on the GMT IIC. It is located near the "6". You need to look at it from a very shallow angle, shining a flashilight on it. A loup would help.

It will be there but very difficult to spot with naked eye,angle the watch crystal down,more easy to find with with a 10X loupe,

Now the Rolax crystals are different. If you spend 100 dollars of your Rolax you might not get the crown or correct time. You need to Rolax, and get a Rolex.

A 10x loupe and a strong light source such as an LED flashlight will make it easier to see.
