My first purchases from Elliot, very responsive and flexible. He was kind enough to combine the total money spent, allow me to use a coupon code and promised gifts!
Ordered products:
Submariner 41mm Clean 124060 No Date 904L Steel 3230
Rolex Fullset Box and Matching Papers
Seamaster 300 "No Time to Die" Limited Edition VSF 1:1 Best Edition on SS Titanium Mesh Bracelet A8806 V5
DateJust 36 126234 Clean 1:1 Best Edition 904L Steel Black Stick Dial on Jubilee Bracelet VR3235
DateJust 36 126334 Clean 1:1 Best Edition 904L Steel Silver Stick Dial on Jubilee Bracelet VR3235
Santos de Cartier 35mm SS BVF 1:1 Best Edition White Dial on SS SmartLinks Bracelet MIYOTA 9015 V2

I got the QC for Santos. Prints and alignments of the numbers are not looking good to me and waiting a response from him. What do you think?

The number 7 is the only reason I'd question this piece. The lines though, if you want perfection, buy a gen.

I imagine someone might have some less than endearing comments regarding this post.

A quick search will render threads of people that do this getting lit up.

Elliot is a great guy - Just tell him no on the Cartier.

The QC pics you have are magnified 40X and will make the print look out of alignment. When you have the watch in your hand or on the wrist you will not even notice it being out .003mm.

We pics are not allowed on here. Make you own mind up.
Thanks for the heads up! Is it possible to edit my initial post? Do you think creating a new post and deleting this better idea?

I really appreciate your response! He really is!

Go back to Reddit, please
I think we got off the wrong foot but I'd like to try to improve things.

Disregard my comment on the #7. Apparently, it's the word "Cartier". From a distance, it looked like missing print.

The last pic magnified 20X and you don't notice anything wrong. When you have the watch in hand or on the wrist you won't be able to see anything wrong with the alignment or print.

There isn't a perfect rep and we are getting them at a small percentage of what the gens cost. I have the BVF Santos large with the white dial and you will be very happy when you receive it.

Camera angles will make the issues you point to, quit using something that your eyes will never see once wearing it. If you can't tell with your naked eye, it's fine and Green Light the watch.

Nothing wrong with the watch, you are being much too critical that you could not see unless you use a precise tool. You will not have this graph on your watch as you wear it so get rid of it.

This is painful to see people who do this.

Thank you both, after all the responses I see that its is just me overcomplicating things. I appreciate everyone who provided an input!
