Can someone show me a pic of a gen vs a rep sliderule that is off? What part is actually off, is it the 35/40 markers or something else?

If we try to line up the 35 marks, 60 and 10 will not align properly.

Awesome, thank you. Does this seem to be a problem with the dial itself, or the slide rule on the reps? I.E. Would I be able to take the movement/dial out of one w/ the slide off and drop it in a case with the older slide, or will it still not line up right?

It's not the dial but the slide rule itself. Infact mine is the genuine dial. The black rep dial does not line up too.
