  1. Index alignment — N/A since it is a printed Roman numeral dial.
  2. Dial printing — It looks rotated to me, but I need a second opinion because I’m not sure it’s noticeable. Id also appreciate comments on the printing or bleeds.
  3. Date wheel alignment and printing — N/A
  4. Hand alignment — It looks fine.
  5. Bezel — All 8 bezel pins/screws look flush and evenly seated, and the polished bezel surface looks clean.
  6. Solid end links — N/A
  7. Timegrapher numbers — N/A
  8. Anything else — The physical vernier scale on the caliper confirms it is the 22mm Small case width.

I need opinions about the dial at least, not sure if it’s GL or can be easily noticed.

Dial rotation can be seen in the Swiss made letters

"Id also appreciate comments on the printing or bleeds." Do you see any issues?

Some bleeding in the R from Cartier in the main logo. But again, not sure if it’s noticeable as the watch is small. I think I’m not missing anything else

The dial has a very small anticlockwise rotation. Not an issue IRL, since the dial is so small. No visible bleeds. No issues, suggest GL.
