Weird. From looking at the alignment of the teeth with the dates, it doesn’t look like it would be centered but it looks like it is when installed... hrmm
Now I’m wondering if I should try the WSO datewheel for my SH3135. I was planning on returning it bc a few dates are not centered with the teeth....
Edit: nvm. Those are not the same datewheels. Flat top 3 on the installed one and round 3s on the datewheel pictured. It does look like it’s a gen datewheel though.

Can you fix a mildly misaligned bezel? What about dial markers? Thanks

...plus, for others that want need casework....that 'brushing and polishing' is my gen Seiko spring drive case...sent on Monday and it's already finished on its way back...NICE! That watch was in really bad shape, and I want to trade it in for a gen Omega Seamster 300m (or Grand Seiko Snowflake),...

Seawolves back and looking great! Superb work oascom. They are sparkling - please ignore my finger prints on those case sides!
My spring drive all put together now....looks amazing!
Now, I need to figure out how to fix the bezel...Seiko says they can back order 6-8 weeks, but need an AD to order, so working that angle now. If that doesn't work, I'll be stuck on how to fix/restore. Anyway, great job.
