Rolex Lec

Hi all
newbie here I just wanted to share some info with everyone sorry if its old news but it was new to me today

Rolex service centres No longer fit replacement glass with an S on the LEC they said too many customer complaints made them stop and now only fit glass that looks original to the watch and year.

Again sorry if this is old news to you guys but it made me happy after putting off servicing my watches as the S in the LEC would send my OCD through the roof.

Out of curiosity, was the issue just knowing it had an S, or were you able to see a blip in the glass at 6 o'clock because of the addition of the S in the etching?

It's old news.
Maybe 18 months or more out of date
Thanks for sharing though

I recently sold a 16713 which had a S replacement crystal.

The S was tiny, you could not see it unless with a loupe.
