It looks fine. Anyone can find a flaw on anything if they look hard enough.

3rd Submariner - from Rolex Boutique in Japan (2 has pearl not centered issue)

Thanks all, I am pretty OCD about it - took it back and the service center people were so nice (you expect nothing from Japanese services) - picked it up again and it is perfect! Might sound silly but man that was a mistake to look into every single details of your watch trying to find flaw... this is a “disease” type hobby ... sigh ..yet we all keep coming back

That red smudge on the saphire would annoy me more than your original complaint

Nice to see how they take care of these cases :)

But now it looks like your bezel triangle doesn't line up with the 12 o'clock marker. ;-)

If it's truly off, swap it.

Just take it to your dealer and get it over with it. That’s what a warranty is for.

I think the ops is right. Watch company proud them self on attention to detail. Then it should please our OCD.
The more member like ops help watch company need to pay more attention to QC. The easier customer, the worse company later.


I would bring it back and have them fix it.

Ok so while the pearl itself is perfectly aligned, in these pics the bezel looks to be a millimeter off to the left, but im sure that can be fixed by just rotating the bezel ever so slightly to the right for correct alignment. there's usually a tiny bit of play they can move left/right before it clicks another rotational notch.

This is a diving tool watch, not really a precision measurement tool.
Enjoy the precision in time keeping.
