Got QC earlier today ZF 5712... the 3 seems off and gap in between the 12
I asked him to get me a better shot of the dial.
What do you guys think ?
Asking for a little assistance because as i mentioned earlier that i am legally blind in my left eye... injury caused by an IED in Iraq 2006 with the US Army ...so i cant see well enough
Thanks in advance

Glad that you didn't use Lucy. Between the time it is taking to get this watch and the stringent QC process that she follows, you would have gotten watch after 8 months. Just kidding!!
Lucy has always been my go to
but i used this gentleman for 3 orders
will be going back to lucy
What TD is Lucy from?

In my experience with a watch this popular if the factory improves a certain aspect of V1 it is likely to introduce another flaw on V2. This happened with other very popular watches like XF AP 15202 and others.
So I received mine for 2 weeks and it looks beautiful. However, the moonphase doesn’t work (can’t be adjusted or even moves over the month). I tried it fully wound, in the AM and activated the pusher cleanly but it still doesn’t work. After a back & forth w/ Trusty, they said that it’s supposed to not work at all and non-fuctional. I’m not sure if that correct since other members were able to adjust it and I feel that Trusty is just covering their ass. Any ideas on how to follow up or fix it?
Gents can some one glance at the close up shot of thr dial and let me know if the 3 o clock marker is good ?

Can anyone tell me which is the right orientation of the closure? I have seen among the gen that it is in both orientations.
These are both gen.....and have different orientation
Second one

In real life you probably won’t see the 12 gap. But the slanted 3 might be an issue but it’s not as bad as others QC. I’d Accept you don’t know when you get another one

This is a macro shot. You will not notice the 12 gap at wrist distance. I don't think the 3 marker is slanted, personally i would accept it.
I take my original slanted statement back. You are correct it’s not slanted. I shouldn’t look reply after 3 hrs of sleep lol

Correct, the second photo is the right one. I have never seen a gen PP (coming from factory) with the first photo orientation. The owner can always swap it around though (easy to do)
