Gotcha!!!
As you can see from the screwed-in crown, I managed to take this picture WITHOUT stopping the watch. A perfect overlapping of all three hands at 12 noon precisely!!!

Do I look like the kinda guy who'd deliberately expose his watch to a magnet?

Nice catch, depending on your camera, that can be tough to do.
To bad you didn't have the bezel aligned as well

Thanks, guys.....don't know how I could have missed that bezel alignment. Just one of the problems with a bi-directional bezel, I guess!!
I had washed Platty that morning and must have moved the bezel whilst giving it a rub down!!
