Blue Pelagos XF V3 - QC pics

[thE-minUtEmAn_49]

Hi folks. As the title suggest. Need all your help with the QC pics of the above mentioned.
Experts and general opinions alike will be appreciated. Could use as many pairs of eyes
possible to help with anything I may have overlooked!

Anyone has one of this from the same factory?

From what I can see some of the hour markers are misaligned and there seems to be
quite a gap on the Hev.......lume shot looks blurry(have requested for clearer shot). Or btw.
TD is Sead1999. Thanks guys

The markers on these are often off by a bit. I doubt you will be able to source one that isn't.

I see. Can it be corrected if I take it to my watchguy?

Like naylor said, the markers are almost always slightly off on these, you will not find a “perfect” one.
And the HEV.... just remember you are buying a $300 rep not a $3000 gen. That watch looks good.

I would take that one; all of those flaws are within the acceptable margin of error for me. I've seen gens with the "dancing markers" too.

Any watchsmith should be able to open it up and adjust it, but odds are that you'll still end up with some slight misalignment somewhere... the design just lends itself to making that obvious.

I can't remember the Pelagos specifically, but HEVs are generally leaky and best sealed with epoxy AFAIK.

I’ll be honest, without zooming in to the point that the watch becomes 70mm, I couldn’t see the markers misaligned. The Hev and lume wouldn’t bother me and I would deem them acceptable.

Suppose I'm being 2 anal about it.....lost sight of fact that it's a rep.

In any case thanks all for your replies. Will take all your advise and just
go with it....as Scott puts it even gens have flaws after all.
