I got some quality control pics from Tony and I am usually not one to pos and ask, but something about the lume dots looks off and I need another set of eyes to let me know if I am going crazy.

Looks like they maybe off a little.. Could also be a little bit of parallax...Look fine I think..Nice watch

I guess it looked like the marker and lume dot at 6 were not lined up, but I think it might just be the angle.

That is what I thought but I asked Tony if it was just the angle and shot, I am not extremely picky so I will end up approving it most likely.

The lume dots and the dial markers are in different levels. Therefore it could be just a paralax problem due to the angle which the pic is taken.
If you consult the pics in the Asian catalogue you will see the same
I think there is no problem

looks spot on to me, definately the angle, the angle also makes it look like the hour hand is not at 12 o clock , but in fact it is.
on a side note not aimed at you at all, i think people have become a little too "anal" about how accurate their rep is, considering what your paying for the watch vs the gen. You've got a great deal. It would only really be a problem for yourself, if your ocd like that it might bother you, which is understandable to an extent

to me the primary issue isn't a QC one though.
So it's not something you can raise to Tony, since it's probably been fairly disclosed before.
My personal pet peeve, the older Carrera rep doesn't have blued screws, but cheap rotor bearing. this one has the nicer rotor bearing, but blued screws.

Looks fine, gen has curved glass which give off the same 'uneven' lume dot look.
The only real tell on this rep are the blue screws.

The lume looks fine to me. What is off, is that that inner bezel ring seems mis-aligned to the dial.
