It is very cool. I learned on this forum what the significance of the number/size of the dots portrayed. Very discreet detail…

Platinum crown on a 114200, personal touch I added to this watch a few years ago. Will do the same to any other Rolex I might add (unless it's gold of course)

You hardly notice the platinum/steel colour difference unless it's in bright sunlight, then you can see it if you look closely.
