Why doesn't Rolex put white gold logo instead of the white print inside the GMTIIc?
I think the white gold logo like the daytona would be great inside the gmt master IIc...

I think that all the sports models have that print while all the classic like(DD, DJ..) have the yellow gold or white gold. I think it make since...and yes the daytonta only sport that have the gold logo.

Is it just me, or does that crown look off? Aren't the crowns a bit thinner and taller than that?

It's an applied piece of gold. There are limits to what even rolex can do...

Millgauss WG Crown
Quote:
WG crowns are really stunning on classic models.. I don't think they will match sports model as SUB's & GMT's ...

I like the painted coronet on my Explorer. It's not so conspicuous, so that only the knowledgeable have a clue as to what I'm wearing.

Maybe Rolex feels that the dials of the sports watches are already clogged , hence they do not put the wg logo ?

There is a general pattern here: When Rolex puts the crown in the 12:00 position it is white gold, if the 12:00 position is a lumed marker, and the crown is below it, then it is painted. That is the difference between the Daytona and the other sports models, the crown is at 12:00
Check it out...
