Icon20 Is the crystal of my watch aftermarket or was it put on wrong?

Hi there.

Newbie here. Recently purchased this 1024 and today it arrived in the mail. The crystal looks odd. I’ve seen this watch in person before and I don’t think the crystal looked like this. It looks like it’s popping too much out of the case. Please refer to the pictures linked below. Is this after market or is there anything wrong with it? Did someone mess up when putting it together?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if it’s just me, but no photos are showing up.

Nope, it's not you. I think the OP forgot to link any.

Unfortunately is not letting me post the link since I’m a very new member although I though I added the pictures as attachments.
