That hole is so huge that from recent spy satellite images, while over China, the MI6 have thought it is Blofeld's secret volcano base...
Just GL that thing. It's perfect.

I had the same issue with a recent purchase and was told this is how the coronet is on all of the new CF batches at the moment. I GL mine and I'm happy to report it is NOT noticeable IRL IMO. I would GL without hesitation.Is this a bad coronet? Received QC pics and its supposed to be a Clean V3 but the coronet looks slightly misaligned and the hole is huge. Am I crazy?
Otherwise the watch looks quite good.

I just received this pic of a clean. What somehow bugs me is the 10 on the subdial. Is it normal for a clean dial to have the 10 this close to the inner border?

It *could* just be the angle but I would say it does look too close in that picture. Certainly doesn't align with other dial pics in this thread.

That is the same watch from another perspective. The coronet mouth looks "normal" for clean for me. The 10 still seems a bit off... i don't know maybe its me

I just received my CF v3 Daytona, and wow this thing is incredible. At first glance, the dial, bezel, movement and everything look incredibly high quality and the level of detail of this watch (gen or rep) is crazy. Cheers to CF and I plan to pick up the black dial version in the near future.

Am I crazy or is the 3 marker definitely slightly off on this panda?
Also, the 9 and 6 are slightttttly askew as well. Need to compare to other QC photos but I can slightly see this when I have tried it on.

Apologies for such large photos, cant edit it for some reason. The slightly skew 3 marker is the last photo.
Honestly, I am a pretty big stickler, but i don't see it. maybe 3 and 9 are rotated a bit inwards? maybe?
i am pretty picky. there's no doubt that index alignment is something reps can't nail yet. it's most obvious in small indices like daytona 3/6/9, or long parallel indices like AP RO.
i don't really complain because it's something that just can't be helped at this price point, applied indices are difficult to get just right (and thus costly in the real world).
if it really bothers you, that's ok, just catch and release and try again

In real life and on the wrist, no one will notice. But now that you've seen it, you won't be able to unsee it. Very strange how the human mind works.
