So guys.. I just bought a V7 AP Diver from Sora. Saw the QC pics and was quite happy with it. But I received it and found out that I could see the next date in the date window... It happens mostly from 15th to 30th

Seems like the date printed on the date wheel is slightly crooked? Is this normal? What would you do? What can I do?

This seems to be pretty typical for J12 AP's. Only thing you could do is have a watchmaker try to re-align the DWO for you.

There was similar with the V6 from J12 too, my own included. Sorted it out myself by replacing the date wheel.

I'm not a watch expert but I doubt this can be adjusted because it's seems like the date printed on the disc are too close to each other for number 20-31.

Any experts advice?

Date wheel swap should do the trick.

I have ordered mine from Ryan yesterday.
Any advice how I could avoid to get one the misaligned ones?
I think it would be unsuitable to ask for 30 QCs xD
