Hi all,

First rep purchase.
Having read through the posts on this thread, I'm uploading my QC pics to see if you agree that the 12 and 7 markers may be misaligned. To me, it looks like the twelve markers are actually pointing away from each other (like crooked teeth) and that the 7 is slightly off. Then again, I see this has been a recurring theme on this thread and it may all just boil down to angles. Nevertheless, I'd be really grateful for your take on the points above. Other than the points mentioned, I'm happy as Larry.

your watch looks perfect. I know what you mean with the tilted 12 o clock marker - but you will never notice this on the wrist. It is just a reflection and noticed when zoomed in 10 times.

additionally you have to keep in mind that the new watch would have another issue that will bother you way more than this. i really like the old style DW font. Nice improvement factory wise.

I would green light it and wear it with confidence ;)

Hey Bionone,

Thanks a lot for your input, good to have some reassurance from experienced members. I know about green hands problem, but my colour vision is poor so I'm not one to complain xD.
Will go ahead and green light this.

no problem mate. if there are particular questions there is no reason not to answer them ;)

the green hand issue won't be a problem unless you are picky. If it bothers you too much - you can get them relumed no difficult mod for a modder if he knows the right color of lume.

if this is the first JF AP you made a good choice with this one. You will be very pleased by the build quality of this model. Hope to see some wrist shots in the near future once it arrives ;)
