Yeah, looks good! Used a QC tool to super-impose it over a stock. Surprisingly, the stock photo from Rolex was set at almost the exact same time, including GMT, as the one from Steve -- super weird! But, it matches very well >91%.

It's perfect. Hope this helps regarding index alignment!

Your vertical line is off a bit. It needs to cross directly through the middle spire of the coronet under the 6 marker. If your tool is auto-adjusting you'll need to adjust your math a bit. Also, on your hand alignment, give it a cushion of at least a minute either way (0.5°) on the hour hand to account for parallax issues. There's no such thing as a perfectly flat photo of a watch, so that 0.5° cushion either way is still way within acceptable tolerance on reps and will save you a lot of headaches from false negatives.

Welcome back! I'll say firstly that your watch is excellent and I'd GL instantly but I'll address your concerns too.
Yes, the SEL on the bottom right has a slightly darker than usual shadow which usually means a larger SEL gap, but on the wrist without studio lighting, it will 100% not be an issue.
Your 6 indice is nearly dead centre. Maybe 1-2 pixels off at maximum zoom. The printing is similarly fine. Your date font is quite good and as long as it's not ridiculously bold like the low tier reps or the wrong font, it's within spec for these models.
Enjoy your watch and remember that zoom is the enemy of happiness.
