It will also be nonsense as many claim but why in this batch after the cny all the crowns at 12 o'clock on the rehaut of these gmt are misaligned?
Let's hope the next batch can solve this imperfection!

I think a lot of the Y2L3 cases have the misaligned rehaut crowns. My V2 Y2L3 is misaligned exactly like that.
Perhaps cases with L6V6 could be better as an alignment?I think a lot of the Y2L3 cases have the misaligned rehaut crowns. My V2 Y2L3 is misaligned exactly like that.
Damn then in the next qc I hope the td submits me another watch this time with serial L6V6 instead of Y2L3
My v3 is y2l3 and perfectly centered...better than my l6v6
Hont? Ask for movement photosWhat do you guys think? V3 insert?

Lube gaskets and swap gaskets around xtal sometimes.
Really guys, in the last few posts i read about the misaligned crown at 12.
please, get your head out of the ass.
a) its a easy fix of 5mins b) its also on gens
Easy solution for a watchmaker, you have to send it to someone and spend more money on it, wouldn't it be better if it came out precise from the factory, if possible? I don't want to seem disrespectful and I'm not a novice user but in short, having to send a watch that has just arrived to someone for realignment is a bit disturbing.Lube gaskets and swap gaskets around xtal sometimes.

It is a chinese watch which has survived to your place. for more info, look here:
Alignement of a dial:
Open up Caseback, untighten (not total loose) the 2 movement holder skrews, and then align the dial with the stem. (1mm is easy possible, not more cause tension on the stem can happen).
its a 5min thing. btw i am no watchmaker
PS: Reps CAN be disturbing, cause they look like a gen watch, but they are "toy watches". (high end, for sure)

What really tickles my bones is that people hold replica to a higher standard than gen. Gen we don't get to QC, we don't get to do any of such things, and even Rolex QC is not perfect, lots of watches are misaligned. Imagine getting the call for a black sub from your AD, only to ask them "sorry, the rehaut is misaligned, the date is not in the center, the 9 marker is 1mm misaligned, can I get another one?

Yet somehow we expect a $500 replica to surpass the $20,000 watch that it's imitating......
I swear I got a friend who sent in his Rolex gen for aligning a triangle indice on the dial. and believe me, it was ok. instant friendship cancelled
Everything is acceptable, I agree with you but here we are such nerds and we look at so many details that when you know and see them and it's difficult to pretend nothing has happened it becomes complicated. you have to pretend not to see.

not an easy thing for a non watch expert /watchmaker/watch repairer
it would be interesting a statistics that show OOB the effective bars waterproof.
