Rolex 1680 red glass doubts

Hi

First, sorry by bad english.

There are two types 127 plexi? One has the edge of the crystal straight, the other does not. The first is service crystal, correct?

Thanks.

Service crystal has a beveled edge. The top hat crystal with straight sides is original.

Hello Charlitos, if it helps you, this picture glass would be a service crystal.

Thank u. So my red has a original glass?

If so, I have always been confused, I thought it was the other way around
