Navitimer World, bezel numbers dont line up... normal?

[Strodda]

I dont know much about this watch, other than I like it. But is it normal for the numbers to not line up? Some are shifted to the right, left and some are dead on. I thought that was one of the rep tells... yet this one is supposed to be gen.

It looks like either the dial is shifted to the left or the bezel is shifted to the right.
I dont know anything about them either so im not of much help.
But it is a nice looker !

Think I read that this is not uncommon. Not sure if it can be fixed.

I have a cheap quartz navi, and it's worse than yours. Try doing some calculations and see how bad it is. For division, X over Y = Answer over 10. Put the 60 on the outside over the 20 on the inside. Go to the 10 on the inside and it should point to 3, because 60 divded by 20 is 3. Mine points to 3.3, not right at all. Try some others that you already know the answer to. 16 over 4, inside 10 should point to 4. etc

yours is pretty good. my old cosmo slide rule was way worse than yours.

Yep, it's def normal for them to be misaligned. Yours actually looks really good!
I've had a navitimer and datora, both of which were misaligned.

The datora had such a busy dial that I didn't care..your eyes got cross-eyed looking at it anyway :hehehe:

oh wow this is gen...

well its definitely better aligned than the reps. but IMO this one had a bad QC and poor alignment..

Yes, my fault for not being more clear. This is Gen and not mine either... just a watch I saw for sale. I really like this model so I was just browsing the pics, then I noticed the bezel doesn't line up.
