Crown alignment

[Arsene.Lupin]

Hello people
Can you pls help me in understanding if this can be fixed ?

Crown is not looking up but is laying 90 degrees left down

Here is the picture



Thanks for your hints

Nothing needs to be fixed, it's all good and the gen Rolex watches have the same thing. Also who is going to see it anyway

Your language skills are excellent, I have a problem understanding WTH OP means...

I believe he is alluding to the crown not facing up when screwed in. Like so:

Oh ok

Wow, this is new to me, I mean someone actually thinks this is a problem. I have 8 Rolex, reps and gens, none has a perfectly aligned crown. Am thinking about filing a complaint, or suing Rolex for negligence if this sounds cooler...

I think between this, and the fact that not all rehauts are aligned, we have grounds for a class action lawsuit-- against Rolex and any factory mimicking them.

only one I had that was almost prefectly alinged was a white gold day date the crown was pretty much as it is on the pictures, not sure if this is just becuase its the president model and more effort is made onthe crown stem threads or not, but all the others rep or gens ive had have always been out!

I think it's the luck of the draw really. I have only seen one person call out their perfectly aligned cronette on a watch forum before.

Jokes aside OP. It is fixable but it's a lot of work for little reward (given that this occurs on gens too). It would require you machining the case threads to start. Which is definitely out of most people's wheelhouse. Def. Mine at least

If you put your hand in your pocket though its perfect

People want reps to be more perfect then reps in general anyways IMO

Because the few hundred they spend on that rep is a big deal.

Not my case, just as good as, where possible and if possible that’s it

In this case was a non problem since as people more informed than be stated that also gens have the crown not always aligned

That’s it
