Datejust 16013 crystal

Not sure if it is the correct section.

I have a two toned 16013 datejust that comes with an aftermarket plexi crystal, that the edge is angled rather than round and smooth. Besides, I also noticed that the crystal with round smooth edge is taller than the common aftermarket crystal.

Would like to know if the round-edged one is actually the authentic Rolex crystal like I was told by my friend or it is also just one of the variations of the aftermarket crystal out there.

Is there anyone selling or any way to purchase a round-edged crystal for my 16013?

Thanks.

Yes, part 25-135 is what I need but most of the available ones I can find is of the angle-edged one.

The round edged one has a higher dome shape, more raised. Notice the photo taken from the internet below.

All the 25-135plexis I can find are high domed, even the aftermarket repacements.
Are you sure you dont have a saphire replacement on your watch right now? A lot of plexi's are replaced with lower Saphire crystals.
