Hello, new to the rep world and in process of my first purchase through PT for a GF superocean II 44. Here are some QC pics. I'm not keen on the bezel, notably the 5 and 3. PT says its actually very good and sent some more detailed photos as below. The side by side shot is next to a gen. Other than the bezel, the watch is great. I know it's a rep, but its also about $400. Am I beng too picky? Thank you kindly

you need to remember you are looking at a super close up picture in very bright light.
you will not see these issues under normal lighting and distances.
Gf is good.
And yes, you are being too picky....

Ok thank you. I appreciate the feedback. I'm new to this :) Perhaps I should accept it and pass it along if I just can't get over it in person. Thank you

The first thing you will notice when you unbox you’re new rep is how small the watch is compared to the highly magnified pictures you have been viewing. Relax and enjoy your watch.

I don't even see anything at all on the bezel @3 or @9. You must be referring to something, but since I am not seeing it, I am going to say you are being too picky. I think bas a general rule when A new member asks if they are being too picky, they are. As others have said, the extreme magnification of pics posted online makes the tiniest thing look massive and even often makes people think flaws are there that aren't even flaws at all.

This is for another watch, but basically the same question was asked. The new member was convinced that he was getting a misaligned bezel insert. If you read my post carefully you will understand one of the several reasons that pictures can be deceiving. https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...18-seamaster-diver-300m?p=9005146#post9005146
