Crown Question

Hello folks. Still relatively new to the Rolex world.

I noticed that some crowns have a different number of dots underneath the logo. Heck, the one up at the top of the page has a bar under the logo. What's the difference? Thanks!

Here you go. I think this is what you are asking about.

Tpilock crowns always have three dots and different sizes for different metals. Twinlock crowns have a bar, 2 dots or 1 dot depending on metal.
