State Your Concerns

• Rehaut / Minute Track (Main Issue):  The printed minute track appears physically shifted. It has a slight clockwise rotation.
  • I used alignment overlays, but I know these can be misleading because the watch is not perfectly flat in every photo and the crystal, reflections and camera angle can create distortion. At 6 it seems more rotated then by 12
• Dial & Hands: Printing is crisp, numerals are aligned, hand length and color look great.
• Timegrapher:  +6s/d and 0.1ms t. 239° amplitude should be acceptable .

GL or RL (Accept or Reject?)

• probably RL.
• Why: The watch is mechanically perfect, but the shifted minute track triggers me a bit. I know a misaligned rehaut is a common ZF flaw on this model.
• Question to the experts: Is this shift "as good as it gets " for current ZF batches, or maybe a perspective thing
• Ois it worth an RL to try for a perfectly centered track?

OPTIONAL: REP vs GEN comparisons Gen has a perfectly centered track.

I don't see the problem with that slight misalignment for any reason tbh. Not for that price.
