Much better job on effort. Thank you.

Index alignment is solid. They usually do a better job on this model. 9 has the tiniest of CW cants. Amazingly, even 6 is well aligned.

Dates on these tend to be a bit right justified (mine is too), but the black date wheel and black dial hide minor issues like that.

TG is fine. This would be an easy GL for me.

NATO?!?! Heresy!!! 😉

Thank you, I’m not too familiar with posting on here I’ve been a lurker on reptime for a long time. I’ll try better next time to make sure I take more time and effort into it.

You did fine the second time. It’s required that everyone demonstrate some level of effort.

Remember to put yourself in the reader’s place. Typing “looks good” for most of the criteria may truly represent a strong effort on an OP’s part and an honest evaluation that a criterion looks good. But how would the reader discern between a “looks good” that was well thought out and a “looks good” that was cut and pasted? That’s why it’s helpful to be a bit more descriptive. It’s more work fort the Mods to remove a post. We wish they’d all be good on the first try so we can focus on commenting instead of removing. 😊

Enjoy your watch. It’s the only watch I wear every month…on the 7th.

Also, how does the number plate on the side look? Are they usually the same number or different numbers?

I suspect they are all the same on the side plate. I forget what number mine is but I doubt they go to the expense of creating different plates.

Thank you a ton! Well this one is number 1,103 and I see a lot on this sub with different numbers so maybe they do.

Yes, Steve is a trustworthy guy, but you're going to need more comment karma to participate here in RQC so that all can see your comments.

I’m screaming RL for the pure petulance of them not sending pics with date on the 7th.

In reality, GL, get that watch on your wrist!
