LEC verification
Which of these statements is correct please: A. All Rolex sports models have the LEC on the crystal. B. All Rolex sports models since 2001, have the LEC on the crystal. C. All Rolex watches that have crystal glass have the LEC D. All Rolex watches since 2001 with a crystal glass have the LEC If none of these please supply the correct statement... may be the year if I got it wrong? Thanks Steve |

I thought the LEC was from around 2002 but no doubt Bo will correct me.

The LEC was introduced in 2001, but on some models it first appeared later.
But strictly taken, none of the above statements are right since the Milgauss GV is the only Rolex that does not have the LEC. The other two Milgauss versions (ordinary crystal, white or black dial) do sport the LEC. The Milgauss GV (glace verte) does not have the LEC since the green tinted glass would make it too obvious and also distort it. All other Rolex watches since 2001+ have the LEC.

I added the reason why (or what is said to be the reason as to why) above.
