16610T check. Question on service.

if you zoom in on the Crystal you can see the laser etched crown. Normally I can’t see that unless I’m using a loupe.

this watch has been serviced in 2011 and has the Rolex service card. I’ve never seen a Rolex service laser etched crystal. Should laser etched crown be visible without a loupe?

I know the crown will have an S but would it be this visible?

The LEC can be visible in pics, depending on the viewing angle and lighting. So, not really a concern here.
As you mentioned, if the crystal was a service replacement, it should have an "S" inside the oval of the LEC (which you would need magnification to see/verify).
My only concern (and the reason I would likely pass) would be the number of times it's seen a polsishing wheel. Those crown guards look a bit thin from here. YMMV...
