Post your laser etched crown pics

Let's see how many pictures we have of our laser etched crowns.

Here's a starter. The dark dials are easier to capture the crown.

Not quite sure, now you mention it.

I found it on eBay from a seller whose nick is "genuinewarranted_Rollies_4less". No feedback yet, since he is a newbee.

Did I buy a knock-off??

Anyway: The laser coronet might not be genuine, but it IS a nice dog.............so there!

My 1992 N serial TT Sub has one. The crystal was replaced last year during a Toronto RSC overhaul, and the new one has the coronet with the sideways S (service replacement) like this pic from Jocke. Actually, I think someone here posted this one already. Maybe Padi? In any event, Jocke's photography is outstanding as usual.
