Rolex people, help me out!

Hey crunchers, what do you think about the laser crown, does it check out? Its the new explorer 36mm, and im sorry for the life of me, this is the best picture i can manage. Its so hard to see, by naked eye literally impossible and with a torch and the exact angle AND a magnifier i can manage like this :P

You managed to get a very good photo shoot. To look at it with naked eyes, what I usually do is under good light, I hold the watch at eye level, tilt the watch at an angle, look at the 6 position from the side of the crystal (not the top), try to focus off and on again. Usually I see the etched crown that way. I hope you understand what I am saying. Haha.

Absolutely its harder than i thought and i seem to be short a hand haha 😂 but does it look legit? I heard fakers are also capable of copying the laser crown nowadays

Good fakers always eventually figure out how to duplicate the Rolex anti-counterfiet measures.

Looks like the Big R will need to develope yet another new measure. 😉

Best way is when viewing at the acute angle @bennylee mentioned, try to see if the etching is at different layers. The fakes typically are at the one level, not at different levels like the Rolex original.

Looks legit to me.

Looks legit. I've seen some of he replica/fake etchings and they are NOT as clean.

Buy only from a trusted seller

I'd say you are looking at a genuine Rolex......crystal.

Is the seller reputable? Are you able to have it inspected at a Rolex AD?

Is the price reasonable? Not to high... not too low?

I bought it at a reasonable price, a tad over normal retail, and its from a Japanese store on chrono with only 5 star reviews. I can bring it to a local AD and I guess should right?
