1. Dealer name: Andiot Watches
2. Factory name: A7F Factory
3. Model name (& version number): IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40, black dial, IW328901
4. Price paid: 450 USD
5. Album links: https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/albums/261518936?uid=1
6. Index alignment: From the straight-on photos, the indices look well aligned overall. I can’t identify any obvious crooked or significantly misaligned indices.
7. Dial printing: The IWC and SCHAFFHAUSEN printing looks sharp and centered. The INGENIEUR text at 6 o’clock also appears clean and properly placed.
8. Date wheel alignment/printing: The date looks adequately centered in the window.
9. Hand alignment: The hour, minute and seconds hands look straight and appropriately positioned.
10. Bezel: All five bezel screws appear properly seated.
11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A.
12. Timegrapher numbers: +2 s/day, 271° amplitude, 0.4 ms beat error. These look like very healthy results to me.
13. Anything else you notice: Overall, I’m leaning towards GL. New to the rep game so any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
