how to verify authenticity of a black face milgauss?

i dont see the laser etched coronet at 6 o'clock, but the engraved ring inside matches the warranty card...

is it the green crystal or clear crystal?? The green doesn't have the crown. If it's the clear check other spots besides the 6. It's been known to show up all over on non-date watches.

take a flashlight, or better yet laser pointer...hold it at the edge of the crystal and look through a loop. Play with the angle, it'll show up.
