Mate that's a V3.5 from Toro.....I had a tough time selecting this one....The trade off was slightly bad lume for a better bezel & dial markers alignment.....Just like you, I wasn't too happy to see misaligned markers as they'd peeve me all the time....So when I rejected the QC's hoping for a better specimen I was offered this and I accepted it reluctantly due to the poor lume (smudgy on 5 of 50 and sorta poor application on 4 of 40 - visible in the lume shot).....

However it's not that you can't find divers with perfect aligned markers and good lume...they are around a lot...just look mate.....and yes, IMO...the QC's you got....I'd reject that...Don't buckle under pressure from anyone....I am with you in your right to ask for another one as asking for aligned markers is not asking for a lot.....

I agree, if the alignment is off, then there is no point because its the first thing friends notice when they are trying to prove your watch is a fake. Did you ever consider getting the inner bezel re lumed so it aligns better? Is that even possible? I might have to wait for V4.2 at this rate cuz I can't spend $350 on something my eye will see every time I look at the watch. Im just surprised more people haven't complained yet, If its an easy fix, I have no probs opening the watch and DIYing it.

Incase other members want to negatively comment, NO I can't afford a gen lol and Yes Im picky :) Its picky ppl like us that help makes the REPs become super reps :wyliehelp:

Nothing?? Wow, can never go a whole day without my friend on my wrist. I feel empty, I always need something on my wrist, almost all the time, even sometimes I sleep with a watch but make it very loose haha

what is wrong with the crystal? It is just great, no color in it and it solves the DW issue

The edges of it bothers me.

Seeing that would bug me more than the dw being slightly off.
