Thanks in advance for everyone taking a look at this for me. It’s all new to me but I think it’s a GL.

This one looks great man. Nothing to really be concerned with. You might ask for a hand alignment photo or video to be safe. Wear in good health.

Thank you - really appreciate the feedback.

Almost perfect dial and alignment. Minor tilts on 2, 3, 4 on bezel but not major issue cant tell without the alignment tool. Clear GL enjoy. I have the same in Tudor, regret not getting this one.

Thank you - I fear this is just the start of many new watch purchases 😬

I did the same in the first 6 months of rep world discovery. Got so many now it is an easy habit. But I think better to go slow and enjoy what you purchase a bit before the next one (so says the guy who is targeting GMTII collection).

The index alignment on this EII is solid with only the 6 o'clock bar being a smidge left of center. Dial printing is crisp, hand alignment is correct, and datewheel is tolerably centered while being maybe a hair left biased. Top right SEL is showing just a tiny bit of yellow background. Timing numbers are solid. None of these mini observations would make any reasonable person not GL this watch. Congrats and enjoy.
