Noticed a Small bubble on hour indicator

I was admiring my LV yesterday, when I noticed what I thought was dirt on the crystal. After cleaning, it appears that a bubble has formed on one of the hour indicators, creating a small shadow. needless to say, I am very unhappy. I know that Rolex will correct this for me, but now I need to go through the whole process of getting it done.

Has anyone else ever had this happen.

I know, I know I know pics. I tried and can't seem to capture it. Sorry

I have not heard of this from anyone Jerry.
Bit of a bind getting it sorted, but I doubt there will be an issue.
Best of luck, did you notice it under a loupe or with the naked eye?
If the loupe can you not live with it?

I have a GMT IIc, and have noticed a dimpel in the lume of one of the hr markers, hard to see with naked eye, but there in direct sunlight.

This is exactly what I have, however, I can See it inside as well. Both watches have the Maxi dial, wonder if their is some manufacturing problem.
