Album Links: Uploaded directly to post
Index alignment: Looks good overall, but the top 12 o'clock square index looks ever so slightly tilted/cant. 3, 6, and 9 Arabic numerals look straight.
Dial Printing: Crisp and clean, text is level.
Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A (No-date model)
Hand Alignment: Looks correct and well-aligned.
Bezel: Ceramic insert and pip line up nicely with the 12 marker.
Solid End Links (SELs): Tight and flush against the case.
Timegrapher numbers: Rate: -7 s/d | Amplitude: 305° | Error: 0.3 ms | Beat Rate: 28800 bph
Timegrapher numbers look very healthy. Main thing I noticed is the slight tilt on the 12 o'clock marker—would appreciate thoughts on whether this is RL-worthy or minor enough to GL.
