This is unbelievable.

I bought a brand new rolex date just 2 watch and i found a big manufacture mistake and that is the figures at the border of the dial are not in front to hour marks.i am so surprised that how a rolex manufacturer can do such a mistake.where are quality control staff of rolex? Are they sleeping?

This is the kind of mistake that cannot be tolerated. A few days ago, a fellow forumer complained of a skewd bezel on a GMT II ceramic.

When I look for fake watches I always think: "if there is ANYTHING which is not perfect it is not a Rolex". This errors make you doubt, and that is a bad thing.

Rubbish. Why would you not want to return a defective article?

That watch does not appear to be of Rolex manufacture. As David pointed out, the LEC can be seen from near-Earth orbit.

You bought this at an AD, authorized dealer?
How could you not notice this?
And, why wouldn't you go back to the AD?

I'm sorry but this does not add up to me.

You could keep it and hope it is like a misprint.
You could become an instant millionaire!
To prove everyone wrong, rip it apart and post pictures.
Now the ball is in your court.

TC, that's obviously a fake. Rolex would not let something like that which is plain as day roll out of its doors.
