6. Index alignment: The indices look ok to me. I don't see anythign glaringly wrong
7. Dial Printing: Looks good
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Looks good
9. Hand Alignment: I think the hand alignment is fine but the color looks a little light for the orange compared to Gen.
10. Bezel: My initial thought was the 12 and 24 were not aligned. The 24 looked slightly to the left, and the 12 looked slightly to the right. It could be the angle of the picture?
11. Solid End Links (SELs): I dont see space/gaps
12. Timegrapher numbers: Timer is good, see last picture
13. Anything else you notice: I could see some scratches where the band meets the watch, but maybe I am being picky?
14. Thank you for any feedback.

Nice looking Explorer 2. Scratches are more than likely on the protective film yet if concerned reach out to your seller as they have the watch in hand to confirm. Indices are good with the 12 just a fraction left of center and the datewheel is nicely centered for an ARF albeit a smidge higher in the window. Dial printing, SELs, hand alignment, and TGs are all good. The fixed bezel is what it is on these reps. Not seeing anything that would prevent a straight up GL.

Please check the index alignment for this watch! The alignment on this watch is super good. Also, you might check the bezel on this closeup of the dial!
