I always enjoy seeing a bezel not lining up at 12. Means people actually use their bezel for something useful. Probably just for cooking pasta, but still.

Think you mean the bezel and not the dial but many must have the bezel aligned within a cats whisker of the 12 marker as they think if they dont there watch will self destruct.

I am OCDC, need to have it 12... (the bezel I mean, I don´t know how you manage to turn the dial)

Aterth · 23 October 2020, 08:19 PM

You are probably one of the few that doesn't care

Its OK to have a misaligned bezel if you are in casual clothing, tee shirt, jeans etc. However if wearing a suit and tie it is imperative that the bezel be aligned to 12 o'clock precisely.

(Its not the fact I read these threads that worries me its the fact I sometimes comment on them that really scares me.........)

Am glad not to be tooooo OCD.

1William · 23 October 2020, 08:56 PM

I prefer it to be lined up if I am not timing something. I typically return it to 12 when I am done. Don't know why other than habit and I like the look.

VC made a feature out of a wonky dial

My distress-rate with this watch is 10 out of 10.

And re the bezel - mine is always 100% aligned, otherwise my ocd kicks in. My partner doesn’t even set the hands on his watch at the right time. Grounds for divorce surely!

Man I had a from afar love affair with that VC H A21. Just a bit too big for me, but the platinum w/blue was really tugging at my wallet.

I’m sure it has its admirers and its charms... not for me though

I use mine regularly when I am cooking so I know how long stuff has been in the oven or on the stove, so its regularly off centre. It drives a few of my pals crazy but it I think they are the crazy ones :)

Etschell · 23 October 2020, 10:55 PM

it makes no difference to me but i actually use the bezel for timing.

I use my bezel as a date function. It is never at 12.

Deroya · 24 October 2020, 03:32 AM

honest mistake i'd rather him call his bezel a dial and actually appreciate his watch than post asking how much more it'll be worth in 10 years.

vcap826 · 24 October 2020, 03:45 AM

Not that it matters much, but I never understand 1675s, 16750s and 16700s where the bezel never moves, you could have paid a lot less for a 16570 if that's what you wanted.

Nodzex · 24 October 2020, 04:00 AM

I think it’s just you!
However, if it doesn’t bother you wear it the way you want to!

herts9 · 24 October 2020, 04:15 AM

When it's that far off, it tells me it's used.

But when monsters do this, it's a different story
