Hello!
Thank you for reading the rules and knowing when you can share QC statements and when you can't.
The next step you could take is to read related topics from other contributors.
Then, you could probably find out that superimposing lines from Photoshop on a dial is a nonrespectless task that even most of the gen will not pass, because either the photo was not taken at a perfectly right angle, or the dial is actually slightly turned, which happens like gen and rep.
Therefore, the argument about $ 500 per watch (which is certainly not few for a rep) does not fit a little. It often happens that it’s just that it’s the watch you ordered and that it works.
If you are interested in the subjective opinion of the participants (which is strange, because you should have your own), then the turn of the dial is almost invisible, the turn of marker 30 is obvious.
Good or bad, the reason to refuse or not is your own business, no one can help you with this.
You should also understand that VSF PAMS at the moment, this is a strictly limited product, and does not always meet all the usual QC requirements, and if you refuse this, there may not be another. I have not spoken to dealers, but I know that some people practice selling without a opt-out option. Yes or no, and no other option is offered.
In the end, I’ll say on my own that everyone always found fault with rotated markers, on SUBMERSIBLES, but this happens often, both on REP and on GEN, and, by the way, having handy items and a little courage, you can align them.
The most important thing here is something else. This is your first purchase, as you said, and you seem to give it a little more value than it actually does. Relax and get the watch you love.
GEN PAM968 is a watch with a very overpriced aftermarket, and REP VSF can only blind confused with GEN, so there are not many options.
Be a little easier and a happy new year!
