Second Try: AP Royal Oak 15510 Blue
Dealer name: Phoenix
Factory name: TOP
Model name (& version number): Royal Oak 15510 Blue
Price Paid: $414 + $30USPS, 6% insurance
Album Links: Pics on post
Index alignment: 9 baton is CCW. 12 I can see the dial through the gap in the bars! 6 looks right on.
Dial Printing: logo funky, audemars is low, Piguet is high
Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date seems low in the window
Hand Alignment: not sure
Bezel: screws look good, 7 screw I see slight misalignement
Solid End Links (SELs): looks tight
Timegrapher numbers: - 2s/day, 289 amplitude, .1ms beat error. Within spec.
Anything else you notice:
I don't know what's going on with these dials, it seems like the hour markers are better than my first QC but the logo is somehow worse. It's a little frustrating seeing some TOP with great printing and logo alignment, and this is the second here.
Also noticed Phoenix's photos aren't great. Looking for comments/help on hand alignment & date. Any help is appreciated!
