I received my QCs, and I like what i see aside of the misaligned bezel

I am new to this... and maybe I shouldn't even ask out of fear of being aware of a new annoying thing... but can you please provide more detail on how you are determining the bezel is misaligned here and how it should look?

more than misaligned, to me, some of these bezels seem to have the numbers not in their exact exact position.
in this, for example, 6 o'clock and 3 o'clock are accurate, 9 o'clock and 13 o'clock not. so even having the bezel centered by your watchmaker will not solve the problem

Don't waste your money preordering something that could turn out to be shit.

Wait for it to be released, check it out and then order it.


Was thinking the same to wait for actual QC photos to be released first.

Just didn't mind preordering in case the waitlist gets too long if the subdial has been confirmed.

Thanks for your help

It looks misalignment mainly due to the camera position, not from bezel.
This photo was taken from the upper side, not from the exact center of the watch.
You can see that from the different widths of rehaut.
This will be able to be solved by photographer

That would be surprising for the Clean bezel which we were all getting for our V4s not long ago ....

I wonder was there a defective CF bezel in the past which had misaligned engraving?

Any news about the white dial 116520 CF daytona?

Think a few members have said after CNY, and I recall one of the Supporting Vendors said the same, so hopefully mid-Feb.

Looking forward to it myself :thumbsup:
