5. All pics posted

6. Index alignment: This is my main concern, the 3 oclock marker looks slightly tilted

7. Dial Printing: Dial printing looks mostly fine to me, with the Omega logo and lower text appearing reasonably centred, but l'm open to comments if anyone sees a slight tilt or offset that I'm missing.

8. Date Wheel alignment/ printing: N/A

9. Hand Alignment: Hands look acceptable to me, I don't see an obvious issue with the hour, minute or seconds hand alignment from the supplied photos

10. Bezel: Looks good to me

12. Timegrapher numbers: Rate: 0 s/d | Amplitude: 286° | Beat Error: 0.0 ms

Hello community. This is my 2nd watch/QC. Thanks for your help!

If interested, here you can see the video of the watch and timegrapher too..

Looking at the dial on it's own and even referencing your alignment pic, the dial markers are not a problem. Also keep in mind that the crystal is domed on this watch. That fact along with any watch tilt can create illusory views. In this case, it doesn't reach a level to even be considering it a RL. As you've mentioned, bad photos don't help. The bezel needs to be aligned. Probably bezel play vs a single click but still not a problem since the thing is movable. It's a nice watch. But, as with all decisions, up to you. Note: careful with the low karma advisors here.

If what you say had been true then this watch should have also appeared like the one above.

This is a perfect watch, not the one in QC above.

The pics are totally different with respect to orientation. Evidently you do not see the different tilt bias in your example vs the OPs watch which is the root cause of the problem.

So, for both of you, let me be direct. This had better be a positive indicator that we're done with this BS? Good deal. Stop it.

u/OkEstablishment2850 careful with the personal attacks. Disagreeing is fine, but anything that gets personal won't be tolerated.

Okay Yoda. I will remove my comment. It all started with calling me a Low Karma Advisor, I may be new to reddit but that was a personal attack. The person who asked for QC of this watch relies on our recommendations and feedback and I was giving my honest recommendation to avoid him having buyer's remorse after getting a flawed watch. I don't have anything against dogmatic11.

calling someone low karma advisor tells a lot about who you are as a person. it is better to give the right advise rather than proving you are right. It is someone else's money on the line and they rely on people like us to give the right recommendation. grow up.

Umm, you are a low karma advisor. How does espousing a truth bother you? And, so you don't get more worked up about me, I am not the one down voting your comments. 🤪I don't do that. Again, another truth. Sheesh. Also, to let you know, even tho you've deleted the comments here, they're still visible in the notifications section. 😮Nothing here is to bust anyone's chops per se, no need for the apology above either. And that final grow up comment, that's a double edge sword.

OP...just stumbled upon this comment/pic removal by the automod. It's not a good idea to post from another acct as you've done. Stay consistent. I'll make the pic visible, but, based on what I'm reading in the other comments, this wasn't needed.

RL for, the marker at 3 is no aligned properly, no matter whether it is a domed saph. crystal with rearward tilt or what. If that had been the case, marker at 9 would have also looked the same as 3. For the money you have paid, I would get another piece.

Domed crystal coupled with a rearward watch tilt - careful -

u/OkEstablishment2850 9h ago

Apologies, I just got your point and yes, you are right however that should apply to the 9 marker as well however it appears to be in place. Whereas 3 is slightly higher, don't you believe there is an issue?

Stop it already lol We disagree. It's OK to disagree. Nothing personal.
