State Your Concerns
ORF
Here is my specific question - I wanted to get a black and white Omega 300 Seamaster and was going to roll the dice on ORF. When I got the QC everything looked great except the baton rectangle at 6 oclock (see imgur). I know angles can be deceiving but when you look at the straight on close ups and video you can clearly see the gap between the date window and rectangle baton is far from parallel.
VSF
Leo was really good about the whole thing and said he can source a VSF replacement due to the issue. He got the VSF and sent QC (see imgur). The 6 o'clock baton looks way better on this version but then I started looking at the rest of it. Is the misalignment of the 12 oclock double baton and indices line within norm? Also looking at the perimeter of the 12 oclock baton and lume it seems different.
Just looking for a sanity check here. I'm new to this and I understand I'm buying a rep and there will be imperfections. What would you guys do? Is this all normal? Am I missing something else obvious.
GL or RL (Accept or Reject?
Inclined to GL the VSF as the imperfection seems less obvious.
