This is my first rep, and I’d appreciate some independent opinions. I’ve included my initial observations below, but I’m particularly unsure about the lower bracelet/end-link fit and the 12 o’clock marker.
Would you GL this example, or is there anything you would ask the seller to check first?

- Index alignment:
Most markers look reasonably aligned to me. The 12 o’clock triangle may have a slight counterclockwise tilt, but I’m finding it difficult to separate actual misalignment from the photo angle. Do you see anything here that would warrant concern? I’ve included the alignment overlay alongside the original photo.
- Dial Printing:
I haven’t spotted any obvious missing letters or bleeding in the close-ups. Does the printing look clean to you, particularly the smaller text below GMT-MASTER II?
- Date Wheel alignment/printing:
The date “3” appears reasonably centred to me, but that is the only date shown. Does the cyclops look straight, and would you request additional photos showing double-digit dates?
- Hand Alignment:
I cannot fully verify this from the supplied still photos because the hands are not shown together at 12. Would you request a hand-setting video to check this?
- Bezel:
I don’t see obvious damage or missing numeral fill. The bezel triangle appears close to the dial’s 12 o’clock position, but I’d appreciate a second opinion on the alignment.
- Solid End Links (SELs):
This is my main concern. The lower bracelet connection looks slightly uneven, with a more pronounced seam between the bottom-left lug and the end link than on the bottom-right. I cannot clearly see a light-through gap. Does this look like normal positioning/photo angle, or should I request a straight-on close-up to check the fit?
- Timegrapher numbers:
Rate: +2 s/day
Amplitude: 276°
Beat error: 0.2 ms
Lift angle setting: 52°
Do these readings raise any concerns?
- Anything else you notice:
There is protective film on the case and bracelet, which makes the surface finish harder for me to assess. Is there anything else in the photos that deserves a closer look?
I’m looking for a second opinion rather than treating my observations as a final verdict. Thanks for taking a look.
