I feel like I have just done the latter, so I encourage the rest of us to learn and be better than me haha

Don't sweat it. You handled the sh!t slinging well. Accept the watch and enjoy it.

I am always surprised when I see such questions... from the beginning as I arrived here (so less than 2 months :p), I read QC pictures were not made to reject all the watches till you find a perfect one.
Furthermore, all this picture are taken from hand, so generally not perfectly straight 90° from the watch.
I told Sead I trusted him to check with his experience, and checked with the pictures he had what I really ordered, as a mistake is still possible.
I think most of us would not even be as picky with an AD (ie reject sometimes 2-3 watches), although paying 10-15x more.

Thank you sir for injecting some noob sanity into this.

this is the watch from another angle. misalignment is severe, definitely a RL here

has anyone heard that VSF has updated their lume color on the dials with the latest batch?

This is a joke right? Watch looks perfect. I got one of these and I love it. I don't have a 20X loupe to find all the defects, but it is fantastic. Maybe ask for photos of the back to review.

I can say that the dial marker's lume is white enough in this QC pic. However, I can still spot a difference on the dial and hand lume color. The lume on the hand looks greenish while the dial is white. Is this normal on the gen or this is vsf trying to finish their imperfect hands batch?
