- rehaut is a little off, but it's an easy fix. open case back, unscrew movement holder and move the movement a little bit anti clockwise.
- insert marker: looking at the marker @3 it seems, relatively speaking to the crown, a little bit off. The insert marker @9 seems better aligned analyzing two pictures.
Anyway, pictures can mislead because of angle, vignette effect and so on. So more pictures always helpful to bring more light into the dark :)

This timepiece looks better than the first one ...

Based on these, would you ask for more pics, GL or RL?

You can kindly ask some more pictures - just for clarification. It's up to you mate.

You're taking this WAAAAAAY too seriously - it's a rep which costs $10% of the price of the gen. The microscopic discrepancies that you are nitpicking over won't even be visible on your wrist - take a look at some gens - they can have far worse rehaut alignment problems than the watch in those pics.

Chill, relax, smoke a blunt, and enjoy the watch for what it is and don't fret over what it isn't.

No, not every noob, but considering his questions were pertinent, resonable and he was polite I don't see the problem - do you ? :)

I am happy to answer specific questions, but general statements like; What do you guys think? is a bit too general in my book.....
