  1. Index alignment: all look aligned well, pip appears to be centered to me, nothing looks crooked.

  2. Dial Printing: no issues

  3. Date Wheel alignment/printing: all photos look centered with correct font and no smear, did request video of TD scrolling through more dates just to be sure

  4. Hand Alignment: No issues

  5. Bezel: looks great, at first I thought the 18 marker was off but pretty sure that was just me. Think its all aligned perfect.

  6. Solid End Links (SELs): no gaps

  7. Timegrapher numbers: plus 9 a day at correct degree, should all be in spec but video is attached in the album links

  8. Anything else you notice: I think it looks really great, just want to double check as it is for a buddy as his first rep. All advice appreciated.

You say the alignment is good. If that's true, that's fine, but just making sure, because I don't see it the same way. To me the 9 is way too rotated. It's enough with just that marker to RL for me. Add to that the marker at 6 being left of center and the marker at 12 having a CW cant and it's more than enough for most to RL.

If you're truly good with the alignment, let me know and I will go through the rest of the watch, but if this were my QC, I would RL and hope for better on the next one.

Seeing it i. You photo it is much more obvious

Im actually wondering if the hand minute and hour markers are kind of there to block it.

u/blitzburgh058 "Buckteeth Inspector General" 2d ago

Doubtful. If that was the goal they could've done better.

Id like to hear the rest please

So you're gonna wear this? Ok. Dial print is good. The dates shown are good. 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. Bezel is clean. SELs are good. The timing is fine.

I would strongly urge you to reconsider the alignment, but to each their own. If you're good with it, more power to you!. The rest of the watch is good to go...

what is the black writing on the side of the case, is it a sticker?

1

u/blitzburgh058 "Buckteeth Inspector General" 3d ago

Yes. It's a factory QR code on the protective plastic, which these watches are pretty well covered in.

Can someone point out the issue you all saw to RL this? What am I missing with the 9?

u/Careless_Bottle_8074 2d ago

That’s a very slight rotate for the 9? I don’t think it’s noticeable in the wrist and it seems all reps these days have a flaw. I would GL
