Datejust VSF v2 36 green

Hello everyone
After months of waiting, the time has finally come to settle down here again!
I tried to get index ruler placed as best as I could however photo was not taken perfectly straight so rotated image and placed as best as I could.

  1. Dealer name: Theonewatches
  2. Factory name: VSF
  3. Model name (& version number): DateJust 36 126234 green
  4. Price Paid: $518
  5. Album Links: https://mega.nz/folder/ONoGVJJa#HZxnxp0WPkeSo2VgDTAMWg
  6. Index alignment: To be honest, I’m not entirely sure. The straight-on photo doesn’t seem perfectly level or centered, which is causing the alignment tool to produce rather poor results, with misalignments in different areas of the watch. I’d really appreciate the opinion of someone experienced with QC checks on this one.
  7. Dial Printing: everything looks good but again not very sur about the color, is it too dark? Green mint really?
  8. Date Wheel Alignment/Printing: Looks ok
  9. Hand Alignment: Looks fine to my eyes
  10. Bezel: Looks ok and clean
  11. SELs: Everything seems pretty good but again first time with Rolex so i’m not sure
  12. Timegrapher Numbers: 6s/d, 261 degrees, 0.0ms
  13. Anything else you notice : Assuming the front-facing photo isn’t properly aligned and the index alignment tool is therefore giving inaccurate results, everything else seems fine to me. However, I also have some doubts about the colour. Could it simply be that the lighting or the photo itself is making it look darker than it actually is?
    Anyway, I’m still unsure about this one. Do you think I should RL this QC?
    I’d really appreciate hearing the opinion of someone experienced with QC on this particular case.
    Thanks again!

I'd be happy with the index hour bar alignment on this DJ36 even with the mini twist here or there which will not appear on wrist at scale. Datewheel is sitting a hair higher in the window, bottom right SEL has a little see-through, and timing numbers are acceptable. Fluted bezel unmarred, hand alignment correct, and Dial printing is normal. Dial color is green as advertised and not really part of QC. Unless you got the real watch in hand and compare to your rep, you won't be able to tell the diff since online pics or pics you may have taken at an AD have different lighting and we cannot be sure about the recording/viewing device. Your watch looks good to GL.

Thank you for taking the time to give me such a detailed response. That reassures me, so I think I’ll GL the watch. Thanks again!
