This isn't my first. This is number 7. Just the first one I've photographed and counted.

I couldn't see mine until very recently (after I've given up on it). Now I can barely see it and I'm super glad Forget about counting ..

While I knew Rolex crystal had these, I forgot to check my own watch. Luckily I bought a loupe several weeks ago for a different purpose. I initially freaked out because my etching was masked by the Chromalight lume behind, but ultimately was able to locate it. I'll trust there are 152 dots.

If you can't even count your Rolex collection how are we supposed to believe you that there are 152 dots?

Some of my Rolex collection doesn't have the Laser Etched Coronet. I have a 1996 Explorer II that was my first. Purchased brand new at an AD in 1996. I have three President's from the 1990's and they don't have. I have a Datejust that doesn't.

I have two Datejust models which do. I have a Submariner Ceramic that does.

Lovely watch, just wondering, is it just the image or does your date not fill the cyclops fully? I have seen a few threads where the date wheel isn't properly magnified.
