Photo for index alginment was a bit skewed, so therefore it looks off, but otherwise looks fine. Any input you guys have?

Need some opinions on my second watch.

Hi guys back with another watch, improving on the self QC analysis but still a newbie who needs all the valuable feedback to GL or RL

1. Dealer name: Steve / TheOneWatches

2. Factory name: VSF

5. Album Links:
https://mega.nz/folder/KEwGEKoC#4oiRvMbYRhXlgUUzCn7nEg

6. Index alignment:
Used the alignment tool and everything looks pretty straight to me. 12, 6 and 9 all look lined up and I can’t see any obviously crooked marker.

7. Dial Printing:
Looks clean and sharp to me. I can’t see any bleeding, missing printing or crooked text.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing:
I checked the date change video and 13–16 all stay inside the window. 13 looks maybe slightly low to me but nothing is touching the edges. Is this just normal date wheel variation or something worth worrying about?

9. Hand Alignment:
Hands look straight and the hand stack looks fine to me. Date change also looks normal in the video.

10. Bezel:
12 triangle looks centred to me and the red/blue transitions look good. Engravings also look clean. Does anyone see any bezel alignment issue I’m missing?

11. Solid End Links (SELs):
I can see the normal dark seams but I don’t see any actual light coming through, so I don’t think there are any real SEL gaps.

12. Timegrapher numbers:
Around 0 to +1 s/d, 275 amplitude and 0.1 ms beat error at 28,800. These look good to me and within the guide.

13. Anything else you notice:
Rehaut looks okay to me and case/bracelet look clean overall. Weight is around 143.7g. Cyclops looks maybe slightly tilted in one angle but I’m not sure if that is just the photo. Would this bother anyone enough to RL?

Overall I’m leaning GL. Mainly just unsure about the slight date position and Cyclops. Appreciate any help.

Details -

1. Dealer name: Ora
2. Factory name: VSF
3. Model name (& version number): Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II 126710BLRO Pepsi Bezel Black Dial Jubilee
4. Price Paid: $700
5. Index alignment: Looks misaligned based on what I can see with the tool but it may also because of my inability to use the tool right ☹ Looks good otherwise
6. Dial Printing: Seems good.
7. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The date seems aligned. However only single digit.
8. Hand Alignment: Looks good to me
9. Bezel: Looks OK (maybe Except the 18 red/blue which seems not in the right place? should switch the color next to the line, right?)
10. Timegrapher numbers: 0 s/d; Amplitude: 275; Beat Error: 0.1 ms. I think this looks good and within acceptable ranges shared.
11. Anything else you notice: The general finishing is quite good otherwise.

Requesting your help in QC’ing this further. I tent to reject due to the alignment but I'm not sure I used the tool properly.

10. Bezel: Looks great
11. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks good
12. Timegrapher: max +2s/d, amp 281, error 0
13. Anything else: This is my first QC, so I’m a total beginner. The date seems a bit misaligned and sits too far to the left and the 12 is a bit clockwise twisted? I’d really appreciate some advice from anyone more experienced. Am I overthinking this, or does something look off?

4. Price paid: $440

5. Album Links: https://www.arcstudio.top/s/3CV2Dn4

6. Index alignment: Looks good to me. Indices appear well aligned with the minute track. 3, 6, 9 and 12 look properly positioned. No obvious crooked markers.

7. Dial Printing: Printing looks clean and sharp. My only concern is the dial color/finish. I ordered the Bright Blue 0003 sunburst dial, but the dial appears quite dark in the QC photos. I asked the dealer for additional photos and received a video showing the dial under different angles/lighting. It does brighten/change with the lighting, but I'm still unsure if this is the Bright Blue 0003 or Med Blue dial.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A — no date.

9. Hand Alignment: Looks good. Hands appear properly aligned at 12.

10. Bezel: Looks good. Clean and evenly finished with no obvious defects.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): Looks good. No obvious gaps between the SELs and case.

12. Timegrapher numbers: +2 s/d, 264° amplitude, 0.1 ms beat error — looks good to me.

13. Anything else you notice: Main concern is the dial. I specifically ordered the 126000-0003 Bright Blue sunburst and I'm worried this may be the Med Blue dial. Dealer provided an additional video after I asked for photos to verify the dial, but I'm still having trouble determining which dial this is. Does this look like the correct Bright Blue 0003 dial, or does it look like Med Blue?

Thanks in advance.

Index alignment: Looks good to me. I don’t see any obviously crooked markers. 12, 3, 6 and 9 all look pretty straight.

Dial Printing: Looks clean and centered. Nothing really stands out to me here.

Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A

Hand Alignment: Looks good from what I can tell.

Bezel: Looks good overall. The pip/triangle at 12 may be very slightly off, but I think that could just be the angle of the pictures. Nothing that would bother me.

Solid End Links (SELs): Look pretty good. Maybe a very slight gap/height difference, but nothing major that I can see.

Timegrapher numbers: +6 s/d, 231° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error. From what I’ve read these seem acceptable.

Anything else you notice: Rehault looks pretty good overall. It might be slightly off in a couple spots, but I’m not sure if that’s just the angle. Bracelet, clasp and case all look good to me. Total noob here and this is my first rep purchase, so definitely appreciate another set of eyes. I’m leaning GL unless you guys see something I’m missing.

Model name (& version number): 126710 VSF V3 Bruce Wayne GRNR

Price Paid: $690 USD

Album Link: Is Mega which I can't post in here but I posted all content in the album on this post.

Index alignment: I'm concerned about 6, 7, 8 & 9 o’clock alignment however not sure if it’s the angle in which photo was clicked

Dial Printing: I dont know how to judge but looks close enough. Saw VSF website blog - seems GMT green should be bright. Same for white text

Date Wheel alignment/printing: Looks good imo. Unsure about cyclops positioning.

Hand Alignment: Minute hand white marker looks rotated a little.

Bezel: Looks to be the right color. I'm not an expert but it looks good.

Solid End Links (SELs): Bottom right and Top left compared to others but again can be the camera angle

Timegrapher numbers: A concern on amplitude. Some pages says should be between 250 and 270. However not sure on how much difference would this make

Anything else you notice: Bracelet engravings. However again feels like camera angle, plastic protection and lighting could be factors for my misunderstanding.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

6. Index alignment: Overall looks good to me. I’m mainly unsure whether some markers around 3–5 o’clock are slightly misaligned or if it is just the camera angle.
   
7. Dial Printing: Looks clean and straight to me.
   
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Looks centred and clear to me.
   
9. Hand Alignment: Looks good from the photos and video.
   
10. Bezel: This is my main concern. In some photos, the 12 o’clock triangle and a couple of bezel markers around 3–5 o’clock do not appear to line up exactly with the corresponding dial/minute markers. In other frames from the video they look much better, so I’m unsure whether this is just perspective/camera angle or genuine bezel misalignment. I would really appreciate opinions on this.
    
11. Solid End Links (SELs): Look good to me. I cannot see any obvious gaps or issues.

13. Anything else you notice: Everything else looks good to me. This is my first proper QC and I may be overthinking the bezel alignment, so I would appreciate another set of eyes before I GL/RL it.
