Hi guys, i have question.. the problem is to translate it into English. I'll try! :D:

about edge/border of triangle at 12. I noticed that rigth side is not perfectly smooth, but it’s lumpy / rough/ notched / jagged (I hope one of them is the right word). this is noticeable with sunlight. This concerns only one side of the triangle , the other, including 9 and 6 index are perfectly smooth. Is this a defect?

send you some photos

Hi mate

From the photos, it looks like there is some sort of issue with the side of the triangle, although it looks fine from the front.

It doesn't look like this would be the sort of thing that is noticeable on the wrist, hope this helps.

On the wrist it is 1 - 2 m apart ... no issue for me.

The solution would be to open the watch, remove movement, remove hands, remove dial, remove 12h-marker, then polish marker, then assemble again. Worth it?

I do not think it is possible to polish the edge .. I believe

ciao veloce, se trovassi solo il triangolino sarebbe meglio... lo so che la dial di TC è perfetta però...anche perchè forse sono io esagerato.. giusto da alcune angolazioni se piego l'orologio si nota.. boh
