Couldn't care less if it does or doesn't. Never even bothered to check.

Aside from laser etching the crown after it's screwed down I don't know how they'd do it. As said, once the o-rings settle, it would be off anyway.

I have watches from Audemars Piguet, Girard Perregaux, Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Blancpain and IWC with screw down crowns where the logo is not upright or at the 12 o'clock position when fully screwed down.
If yours are not, then I have been a very lucky man. Of the brands above that I've owned their logo has always been upright. I guess from what you're saying its not the norm. Thought it was.

It is a nice touch when they line up but as was stated earlier they will move w/ age.
