The above model is valid as long as velocity does not decreased with depth.

Where do you know about the well-known examples of Oceanic Crust?
Layer 1: Deep-sea sedimentsLayer 2: Basalt (Volcanics and shallow intrusions)Layer 3: Gabbro (Deeper Intrusions)Layer 4: Peridodite (Uppermost refraction; gives Moho refraction)
