FAQ: How will I found the 107 dots on my Rolex?>>>>
First you have to have good light and a good view, otherwise the reading glasses recommended.
If not of that working you have to put the watch at the front of your camera and try to find it that way.

Here is how I use to do.



And after some training it will looks like this.



This is a service/replacement crystal the have the lying S in the coronet that those crystal have for a few years.
Today it's only the regular without the S that Rolex provides.

I can't capture mine with a camera at the moment, but it looked much less organized than that crown's dots... more like a 3rd grader did it.

I have yet to find this on my white dial Daytona, mainly because the dial is white. So to me, it is definitely the elusive crown.

I learn something new 107 dots on LEC.
This is extremely extreme.

Shine a LED light at an angle to 6 o'clock, it will show up.

Thanks guys.

Sorry but it should be 170, not 107.

If you use more or less it will be another brands logo.
