Breitling date window. Am I being too picky?

I'm wondering what to do. I ordered this Breitling from Andiot. He sent me QC photos but there was an obvious scratch on the bezel. He noticed it as well and when I mentioned it he very kindly ordered another one, which is the photo you see below. But the date wheel is off and this is the kind of thing that would bug me every time I look at the watch. I don't want to be a jerk or too picky. I ordered a Rolex Panda from him that looks great on QC and also an Omega Seamaster that I green lighted even though the bezel was not the same as on his web page and it has an apparent scratch on it. I did not want to be too picky then. I have no problem with some minor scratches and the white dot at the top looking a tiny bit off center. But this would drive me crazy. Am I wrong for red lighting this? I don't want to make him upset.

Thanks for the reply. On the video they were all like that. I did ask if he could adjust the date wheel, or swap out this bezel for the other one, but I don't even know if he has the other one.

That would bother me.
I think if you can get it done right, now is the time.

Thanks. I discussed it with Elliot and he was very nice about it and promised he would fix it.
