Does your RG Daytona have gaps between the SEL and bracelet?

Hi all,

Does anyone with the 116505 have the minute gaps in between the lugs and the SEL? My SEL has some wriggle room in between the lugs if i pinch them - would this be considered a defect?

Found this photo (you can see the gap in the top left and bottom right.



Thank you!

I'm not sure if that is a defect but I thought Rolex manufacturing tolerances were tighter than that.

Has if had a lot if wear?

It can happen but it's poor work, esp when fakes try to avoid this as a tell.
