I found a reputable watch repair shop who can center the dw for me without changing any parts tho it may still not look perfect...$40. I'm gonna drop it off later this week and see how it goes. otherwise I'm loving the quality of the watch. accuracy wise it's only +10s/day and it's getting a lot of wrist time for me. If you have the resources to mod it for better datewheel I do recommend it. The all gold and silver dial is really growing on me and it doesn't look that fake though it is a bit too yellow compared to real gold .
