IMO,very blatant flaw...
I could no live with this brutal thing.
Sorry... just my opinion!

Agree. A slight misalignment is common and acceptable IMO. But this is too much.

As I understand this strap doesn't have the correct end hole though?

J

You are right, The last hole is a triangle on the gen. Not a big deal for me though.

Or do you mean the hole for the springbars?

Looks to be Bond's watch of choice in Bond 25. Seems to be an unreleased variant (2020?) in a black / gold without a date window at the 6. Spotted this on set today:

Hi guys,

i got 3rd QC set what do you think about pearl? For me is missaligned but is it acceptable? Its common issue i guess. Im waiting 37 days from order now... Except pearl watch is fine for me.



I got pics just like that for my grey dial, and I sent it back. That kind of detail would be the only thing I saw every time I looked at it.

Insert is not centered to the chamfered bezel edge though. Everything else looks good. Its an easy fix.


Would pls. explane more detailed the issue with "Insert is not centered to the chamfered bezel edge though",because for the newbies eyes some flaws are not so visible. 10X

About the issue with the "Date Off-Center"
---------------------------------------------------------------
Below are two pics from my QC Set,but with different camera angle.
On the left one the date seems to be little left and on the right pic the date seems relatively centered.
IMO,sometimes if the supposed flaw isn't very blatant,the things are just matter of camera angle.

The pearl should sit smack bang in the middle of the lumpy bit of the bezel. This one is ever so slightly to the right by a mm or two.

That red arrow doesn’t line up with 12 O’clock at all. If you move the red arrow to actually line up with the 12 marker then you’ll see the pearl is much more centred than this pic suggests.

Oh, sorry I see what you mean now. It’s lining up with the bezel, and the bezel doesn’t line up with 12 or the pearl.
Don’t mind my stupidity.

stephen88 you must be fu*king kidding me. The bezel doesnt sound like gen?! You got a perfect rep for 1/10 price of the gen and you are complaining about the bezel click xD this rep is just GLORIOUS! and I don't give a damn bout the bezel click. Love this watch
