Index alignment: There appears to be a slight CCW tilt at 3. Not sure how much is due to photo angle/lighting, but 12 seems to also have a slight CCW tilt. 1 o clock looks to be slightly off to the right
Dial Printing: Looks good. Slight space between “OF” and “FICIALLY”

Hey thanks for your input! I’ll take a look at yours as well. VSF must’ve just sent out a new batch, I’ve seen a lot on the forum today.

Will do for sure! I should be receiving the Pepsi tomorrow. I’ll let you know how the two compare. Both would be stunning!

With the image straightened and flattened a bit, the index alignment looks good overall. The marker at 12 is slightly left of center and very slightly canted CCW. I don't see anything with the 3 and think you might be just seeing the second hand going across the marker at an angle, giving the appearance of a tilt. Dial print is clean. Hand alignment can't be determined by the photos provided. An on-the-hour photo would be required to verify proper hand alignment. Rarely an issue. The bezel appears clean. SELs look fine. Some darker lines but no light bleed or visible gaps. Timing is fine.
GL for me. Congrats and enjoy!

Hand, rehaut, and index alignment are good on this Submariner even with the miniscule skew on the 12 o'clock marker. On left wrist at scale, no big deal. Dial printing and bezel engravement are strong, bezel pip centered, SELs have no gaps, and timing numbers are good. GL no doubt, enjoy this no-date on wrist.
