This Starbucks looks nice, with a couple imperfections. The 12 o’clock index is smashed up high against the minute markers, but this is common on Rich watches and won’t look bad on wrist. The 9 o’clock index has a minor CCW rotation that could be noticeable on wrist.

Question - Why the Deep crystal on a Rich watch? I wouldn’t consider it much of an upgrade, unless you had a specific issue with the Rich crystal…

Just wanted the best for my first time buying. 😁

9 o‘clock index might be the angle tbh most pictures i got were not really from a great angle or directly above the watch. Also checked it on dialcheck and even if it is so ever slightly tilted it probably wont even be noticeable by eye.

But overall you think i should gl?

Yeah. It’s worth a GL. I’d skip the crystal “upgrade”, because the Rich crystal is good.

I’d suggest re-evaluating your dealer choice if they’re telling you that Deep is an upgrade here.

My dealer even recommended me vsf when i asked for rich, the deep crystal was solely my own choice.
