It took me forever to find mine. I was looking at it under all sorts of light for a long time. The real rolex ones are very subtle and hard to see. I have seen some fakes where it is there, but it is way to easy to see. It seems if you shine too much light onto it, the whole thing will disappear.

Ive never heard about this and always thought I was on top of my game when it came to Rolex. So.. To my Brothers and Sisters of the forum, whats your take on this?

As always thank you for the help and stay thirsty my friends....SV
I had a Sub. 16610 serial letter "V" Rehaut and desperately seek every possible way and never found the laser crown.I wan to take this question to know whether I found it not because he was or was a watch that changed the crystal by something wron that would happen. ( fall and break etc..) I bouhgt it with all the stickers but had a gray dealer and he put my name in the empty plastic card. I sold this watch a few months ago.
Especially for the friend LA LEC who asks for the series and year.

I tried forever to see with naked eye, even with LED flashlight. I can only see with magnifying glass. I think it is due to it being a white dial or my age

All the photos in thread show against black dial. Can anyone see the crown against a white dial without magnification?

If you had a 16610 with a V serial it was there its just hard to see,and now your watch is gone, you will never see it again, unless you buy another watch, and Rolex have never made a series of any watch, its just a case serial.

In my Rolex 16610 Serial V I never saw the laser crown

What happened to my post .. did not see it posted .. I repeat:
Bought a RolexSubmariner serila "V" with the rehaut ( I think 2008) new .. new .. but from a gray dealer. Even in the plastic card he put my name. The box I received was not the one corresponding to that model, but was originally from a previous model Rolex.This I realized time after the purchase.The watch came from a Rolex AD who gave up on selling that brand. OK. I never found the laser crown mentioned in the position of the six o' clock..They could have changed because the glass broken or something? Never other people specialized in fines watches repair who saw the watch ever told me it could be fake.
Already sold but you are saying?
Thanks friens

Thanks Padi56
but we tried to see a thousand different ways and not just me, my family, friends, would lock us into a dark, with a flashlight .. anyway .. try all possible means. Never appeared. Now I think that it was a watch who fell and they changed the crystal so it is the reason that a gray dealer had a new watch and with the plastic card empty.
Thanks for your answer. Very kind of you.

One of the best ways that I have found to see the LEC is with SCUBA diving
