Submariner 116610LN dial..

Hi, is this circle "bend in curve" at the centre of the dial, normal on the SubC..? Or is it a defect..? Cause other watches usually has flat surface, even when light shine on it at certain angle..

It's normal. They all don't have it, but many do. I had a GMTIIC that had the "dimple".

I have it on mine. I just now noticed it, and I've been spending the last week and a half staring at my watch like a fool in love (I just bought it). So if I never noticed it before, it officially doesn't matter.

What is this "bend in curve"? Can anyone explain further? I'm looking at my SubC now and am not sure what to look out for.

Under bright lighting, you will see the centre of the dial having this bend in curve or groove. Where some other watches don't have...

Is it a dimple or a reflection from the base of the hands?

It's a dimple on the centre of the dial, not reflection. It's something like this...

People seriously need to stop staring at their watch looking for anything they perceive as "not normal" or "faulty". If this is your focus, you are missing out on the experience of what owning this fantastic time piece is and is all about. Just my two cents. I only write this because I come to this site to enjoy how people love their watches the way I love mine, but more and more these types of posts are making an appearance.
