Hey guys! I know full QCs aren't allowed, but I was hoping to get some opinions on whether the bezel seems grossly misaligned to anyone else. Specifically, the "30" on the bezel and the six on the actual dial seem misaligned to me, in addition to a lot of the other numbers. The indices don't seem super well aligned as well, but I understand that this is a known issue with this model and seems to be accepted, judging by other QCs. I'm brand new to the rep game and this is my first purchase so would love some help understanding what my standards should be.
Here's the link to the original QCs as well, mods please feel free to edit them out if they're not allowed:

I don’t even like this dial color usually but I have a soft spot for metal bezels so gimme dis.
For me it's the other way around. The dial looks promising, but I don't like metal finishing on bezel inserts...
same the bezel insert when its all metal finish its kind of meh.... but the dial color its much better than the mate blue of bb58
Yeah, it's going to be a scratch magnet for sure. It should have been brushed metal at least.
Picked this beauty yesterday so can contribute with a few shots.
When looking at the online release photos, I thought great piece, fantastic dial, shame on the polished mirrored bezel instead of brushed/matte one.
In person, this bezel is nice. Also, it's so reflective than it ends up taking on the color of its surroundings or whatever is being mirrored in there instead of being a plain polished stainless steel color -- can't really describe it or capture it but it's n nice effect.
Proportions and dimensions are just top notch. Could not have asked for a better summer watch just in time for it.

Forgot to add. Although Tudor's official bracelet for this piece is this great Jubilee which stays in the line of the vintage nod they were aiming at, I'd love to play around with brushed Oyster and Rubber options to have some versatility for different occasions.
Wondering if Tudor's gen rubber bracelet is up for sale and if it would fit this one, havent' had time yet to check that out.

That's very useful information - thank you, sir!
I do enjoy its looks in the Jubilee but I know I will sometime feel like having this mesmerizing dial sit on a different type of bracelet for a different style. Not sure yet about the Oyster, especially as I already got enough great Rolex pieces on Oyster bracelets, but I have feeling this one on Rubber could be a summer stunner too.
