Is the logo misaligned or am I too picky?

[Cocoloiseau]

Hello everyone,

I juste received the QC pics for my future AP 15450 and am a bit bugged by two alignement issues i see on the dial (pic below).
Since it is my first transaction, I just want to make sure I am within the limits of what can be a valid point for refusing QCheck as well as getting expert's eyes to double check.

Thank in advance for your help

Ive got a blue 15450 and believe me it is a small watch, the issues your finding while blowing up the QC pictures will not be noticeable in real life on the wrist,
imfact on the wrist at normal viewing distances you can hardly read tha audemars piquet writing let alone seeing a slightly misaligned logo. But it's your money your call.

its a fantastic watch for a smaller wrist, great choice for your first rep

which TD did you get this from , I was under the impression that the 15450 had been discontinued

Problem is i saw them instantly without zooming on pics but then again, I am used to noticing small details.
Still available on Intime but i went through Mrtimezone who is probation here.

If it makes YOU feel uncomfortable, then just ask for a replacement. Actually there is no point posting QC pics here asking for the opinions of others when you are the one who is going to wear the watch.
The rest of us may say what we want, but you are the one who will be looking at the watch. Makes sense?

Yep totally,
I just wanted to have your feedback on what is a valid point or not. I know I am buying a rep so I can not expect a flawless work, was looking for your experience with such small flaws

sorry OP for posting off topic observations beside you slightly crooked AP logo (which wouldn't bother me on such a small dial - i don't even notice the alignment of the logo on my 15400)

BUT i have to say that merely nobody mentioned in a particular thread that the 15450 from JF also got the updates that were only seen on the 15400 before.

I am pointing at the new DW font and refined tapisserie - even if not 100% correct - 100% better than the old bubbly and unsharp structure of the dials in the past.

Very nice to know - thanks for sharing!

Ok fair point. For what it’s worth, any crooked marker or logo can be straightened by a competent modder.

unfortunately, France is desert for modders and rep friendly watch specialists for what it's worth

I know a watchsmith but not modder in France

They never made this watch with a black dial. Instant tell that’s its a fake. I bought the same watch last year.

This is a blue dial but thanks for your input

I would ask for a swap man. That's grossly misaligned. You WILL spot that every single day and its not hard to see even from a distance. I have a blue 15400 and because of the tapisserie lines running parallel to the logo you can easily notice the alignment.
