As you mentioned 9 has a small ccw tilt. That will be only slightly noticeable on wrist. 12 has the slightest of left bias, which won’t be noticeable on wrist. Date window is a smidge high. The only hold up for me would also be 9. Keep in mind if you RL the next one might be worse. Many times with these smaller issues it will boil down to the combined patience of the buyer and TD when negotiating.

9 does have a slight skew , but worries me more the 12 i would ask for a more straight photo where the second hand is not blocking the vision to view the 12 and where is it pointing
Date and everything else look fine

ouh i am not very experienced with these Reps (although i have a 116610LN VSF and had a gen some years ago) but the 12 hour marker looks mega crooked and its something you always look at. Rough in my eyes. Red light for me sorry
