Ok got new QC pictures. Take a look at the cross again. Still crooked. Not sure if they will be like this. Yes I am aware it will not be visible to anyone looking at it on my wrist. Yes I am aware that I will not actually see the crooked logo on the dial while it is on my wrist. However, I can't unsee this. What do you guys think, roll dice one more time? Might get worse one than this.

IMO for the price I would not accept. Especially as you mentionned it the first time.

You guys are right it will bother me as well. But it seems they will all have this issue I think.

Got new QC pictures for the third time. It appears the cross is still not straight. Looking back at the posts in this thread it seems that the other QC pictures all have some slight crookedness of the cross. So will probably accept this one and live with it.

Yes I agree. I think they will all be like this. I believe it will be possible to adjust the cross with a good modifier. It is not ideal but really the overall piece is quite nicely done in my opinion. Once I get it I will post more pictures and give my impression as I have had the JJF one and can compare from memory.

Just got my QC, as well, for the white dial and the cross is rotated clockwise. Obviously a pretty substantial systematic error with these.

Wow that's a bad one. Not just the cross but look at the Swiss Made. Lol
