Hi all. I received the watch today. The truth is that in general it looks very good but it has 3 defects that at the time I did not notice in the QC photos, until I see it in person. As you can see in the bottom part of the 12 o'clock marker there is a small space and it looks misaligned, the DW is misaligned, from day 1 to 19 it is not so noticeable, but from 20 to 31 it is much more noticeable and the crown is reversed once it is screwed.
Greeting.

IWCguylovers You can position the crown anywhere you want, just unscrew it and turn it 180º

Yes, I know, but if it's not tight, the water will enter ;(

IWCguylovers I meant for you to unscrew the crown, twist it a little bit and then screw it again. Try your luck until the logo faces up while fully screwed.

can not because of the type of thread, in my watch the thread are single, if it were double will work.

What do you think guys, I take it to watchmaker so that I can line up the 12 o'clock marker? regards

Not even gens have always an aligned crown logo...

to achieve a different appearance the whole tube has to be turned by a certain angle - as the tube is most likely also screwed in while being glued/fixed with a loctite like component the windings or at least the tubes position must be redone like i said... all in all impossible or uneconomical IMO.

There is no requirement on a gen watch for the crown logo to be pointing upwards. Same as gen rolex. Enjoy

 

[IWCguylovers]

Thanks guys. I will full enjoy this watch.

They've updated the printing on the v5 "swiss made" looks much better now

 

[Tigerdragon]

is the new batch out?

 

[Rolemars]

Zero posts junior member, would you like to elaborate? Only some silver SS V5’s and the RG black have the new dial so far.

What does SS mean ?

Stainless Steel
