Hi guys, Thought I'd share this for the benefit of one and all... On the left is a genuine laser etching...note the larger 'balls' on top of the coronet. On the right is the fake one....note the small 'balls' on top. Cheers - JJ   |

I've seen all of my watches and the 'balls' on top of the coronet are as you see in the image on the left. JJ  |
