What are you talking about as it is against RWI forum etiquette to post QC pictures ask for approval comments.

This is a direct quote from the rules.

"QC pics should only be posted if you have some doubt and need to ask a question such as "Hey guys, the lume on the 6 looks a bit wonkey to me, should I let it go or ask for another watch?" or "Is the SEL gap on this excessive or is that normal on this model?" or even "I was told this is a V3.5 but I'm not sure, is it?" That sort of thing, not a general "can anyone see anything wrong?"

Which is exactly what I did.

All you little hitlers can all relax now, i've accepted the watch.

Maybe I suggest eating less red meat or stop reading the Daily Mail or something.... I feel your collective blood pressures are even higher than Hont's prices.

From your first post which you heavily edited to take out your comments regarding QC approval.

I feel like the whole dial is out, rotated left, and the 30 marker on the bezel is wonky. Would you all reject this watch?

Looking for an argument today pal? Things not going well at home?

You have started off on the wrong foot at RWI as a newbie.

It seems that we were able to answer TC's question, and also explain to him where it was not completely correct.
In my opinion, the issue has been resolved.

Apologies if this isn't the right place, but I have my QC pics for my PAM 968 Bronzo from Trusty Time.

Considering the watch is over $500, i fell the allignment might not be good... or am i being too picky? It's my first REP so not sure what to say to them.

Rotating bezels on PAMs are normally a little loose. I had a gen Pam Submersible, and the bezel was not very tight. Hence, they sometimes sit a little crooked. I think it's more like the bezel is sitting a little to the right on the CQ pics than the dial sitting left.

My VSF PAM 382 and VSF PAM 968 have loose bezels and I may have to do the dental floss mod to tighten the bezels.

I will ask the seller. Just wanted a 2nd opinion from someone, big mistake.

Not sure who you guys are used to talking to, but you won't be disrespectfully speaking to me like a mug unchallenged.

Stop being a mug then mate.
