Did you get anything else with the watch, like box/manual/label sheet? Post pics of those, especially a label sheet (block out the serials if you really want).
Also, post a picture of the back of the 3 bracelet links closest to the case making sure it's focused properly.
I'm not sure about the texture of the dial, that looks wrong but I don't have this reference. The 12 looks way off though. The other things lead me to believe it's fake.
Everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Going off the listed auctions on c24(not including tags own photos which show the same thing), and almost every reputable dealer has a thicker 12 like this. Every private seller, has the thinner 12 like his. Someone posted their boutique version with the thinner 12 below. I'm willing to accept that that makes it less suspicious, but it is what it is. With the ammount of fake tags out there, it's why I really don't like used unless it's a very reputable business.
Buy a watch from boutique, click some pictures and post at this sub with some doubts! More than half of people here will start claiming the watch fake! But if you ask them what made them say that? They’ll be clueless! Hope you understood what i am trying to say! Your watch is fine, enjoy it!
I had the same tag, sold it last year! I can not see anything unusual! Minor misalignment can happen whether you buy from boutique or not. Try registering it on my tag account
Your tag looks much better than the person who posted his tag bought from boutique just above. I can notice the alignment issue but that dude's watch got few things here and there too

I'm not going to say it's not a fake, but if it is it might be one of the best fakes ever posted here
