None of my watches have the LEC which I think is good because I probabaly would go crazy trying to look for it.
 The easy trick to finding it is to use a flashlight and shine the light coming from the 12 o clock side (or opposite side from the LEC) towards the LEC. Try holding the flashlight at the same height as the sapphire crystal and from certain angles, the LEC pops right out without the need for any loupe.
