I emailed Rolex to ask about the laser etched crown. This is the reply



Dear Jeweller,

Thank you for your inquiry. Kindly note that the laser etched engraving is extremely difficult to see and normally would be located at the 6 o'clock side of the watch. However, as your customer's model is a Sea-Dweller, it would not necessary be placed at the 6 o'clock side. We would suggest using a 25x loupe to search the entire EDGE of the crystal (the laser etching will be located at the very edge of the crystal, the bottom of the laser etched crown almost touches the edge of the crystal). Please advise us if we can provide you with any further assistance.

Sincerely,

After Sales Service
