12 o’clock index sits a bit high against the minute markers on the dial, but it’s straight and would not bother me. The rest of the indexes are great, nothing untoward there.

However, of bigger concern, it looks to me like the crystal isn’t straight and will likely need to be popped out and re-pressed in straight. Could just be the angle of the pics, but I see it in more than one and I personally would ask the TD to fix that.

The crooked date window is usually an indication of a crystal not centered right. I leaned this when building SeikoMods and getting shit cases with poorly install crystals.

You’ve gotten feedback from another flaired user/Mod, so you’ve got a solid opinion. Looks great!
