Thanks guys.

Sorry but it should be 170, not 107.

If you use more or less it will be another brands logo.

Awesine Jocke! I've always wondered how to capture a pic of the crown. Will attempt this sometime :-)

Thanks, Jocke!
I tried counting once with a loupe and a flashlight. I gave up after about 40.

I don't know ,Jocke , the crown in your avatar looks a little off. Perhaps we should submit it to the watch out section. LOL

To the point where I thought that I was in control and had counted 170 engraving markss in a service crystal. But oh what I
deceived me when I saw the Rolex patent application from 1997 where one clearly sees that there are stars that are engraved
at different angles and heights not so the glass will lose its strength and crack. One sees the clearly that it is also a double row of
stars in the crown the outer edge, so now it was suddenly a lot more engraving marks. So now I have given up counting them but
content myself with knowing it is a cruel little option proving that Rolex can work with precision, too.
