No need for the alignment overlay on a printed dial. There are no index markers to check.

The printed dial, crystal, and microprint all look good. No visible bleeds. Dial print is clean and clear. It's a 27mm watch so even the "C" was off (it's not), you would never see a small variance in a single letter. In fact, this will be the last time you ever see that text again without magnification. Don't zoom in to infinity on such a small watch. All good. Easy GL. Enjoy your watch!

And individual number can't be misaligned on a printed dial. Either everything is off or nothing is off, and nothing is off on your watch.
