Just received QC pictures from a TD. I believe rehaut is incorrect. Am I right?

Hi,

This is the QC picture I received for my milgauss. Everything to me looks good except the rehaut. I believe the the "R" of rolex should be on every 5,10,15,...55, etc second right? Starting from the 5 second mark, there is an "X" and the "R" is at the 6 second mark. It seems to be correctly aligned from the 45 seconds to 55 seconds but off starting from the 5 second mark. I am comparing it to this picture from jomashop - http://www.jomashop.com/rolex-116400bkso.html

Here is the QC. Would it be appropriate to reject if the rehaut is incorrectly aligned?



Thank you everyone in advance!

Certain models have perfectly aligned rehauts. This is not 1 of them.

The question is, are all of these same watches coming with similar alignement? The fact that other models have better alignement is irrelevant.

looks fine to me, no one really checks the rehault when you get the compliment anyway

You should just accept it, the next one may be alot worse or have other problems, this is really no big deal, use your head.

Unless you're trying to put a nail in the wall to hang a picture... then use a hammer.

Sigh....decisions, decisions. I made it clear to TD that I needed a correctly aligned rehaut and he agreed. I guess it's just a matter of patience now.

I was debating between a gen christopher ward quartz chrono and rep milgauss and chose the former lol. we'll see how this plays out.

Every Rolex I've purchased I've asked the TD to try to find one with reasonably well aligned rehaut engraving so that I can accept the QC photos of the first watch, and I've only had to reject 1 of the 5 I've bought because the engraving was so poorly aligned.
