New here. 126500 crooked marker.

Hi,

Great works all your guys and mods do. It’s one hell of a community. I’ve taken the plunge on a CLEAN 126500 from CTIME, but I’m convinced the 9 marker is crooked? Would appreciate any feedback.
Cheers

Thank you, maybe it’s the camera angle. Enjoy your weekend

If it's crooked, which i think it isn't, you absolutely won't notice it. I'd happily get that watch.

Told you that tool we nicked would come in handy . . .

Still looks good to me. And keep in mind that there’s no guarantee the next one will be any better.

By the way, those tools are useless

Exactly - if we take a look at that alignment tool picture it looks like all the indices are off with the possible exception of the "6".
So, actually worse than useless.

To the OP - the QC photos are really for you to spot absolute howlers - such as blantantly missing lume. A hand that is not pressed correctly. Paint faults on bezels, huge scratches, etc. The camera taking the QC photos only has to be off-centre axis by a mm or 2 and the indices will look slightly out.

FYI, the famous QC alignment tool is pretty much useless…
