Cool shot. The 16610lv is even cooler watch.

The local AD service centre recently explained that the new service crystals do not have the 'S' etched inside the crown.

Nikon D850 with a Laowa 100mm macro lens that is very tricky to use.

Here is a little more info I have put together about the laserlogo.

What is best a custom Rolex or a Rolex that is stuck in custom?

Buy a professional camera and you´re a professional

Not anymore, I had a new crystal put on my 2002 16570, the LEC has no 'S'.

Good info in the link! Thanks for putting it together. I've never realised that there are different markings about anti-reflective coating in the laser logo.
