Looking to see if hand on chronograph minutes hand is acceptable. It looks tilted to the right, but wondering if it is within expected alignment.

  1. Dealer name: Theonewatches (Steve)
  2. Factory name: APSF
  3. Model name: Pilot Chrono IW388102 41mm SS / SS Blue Dial DD69385 Super Clone
  4. Price Asking: $598 plus shipping
  5. Album Link: https://mega.nz/folder/fR5CxDgY#chIL9LELlun4LaQiUh8E1A
  6. Index alignment: Printed markers so I don't think there should be issues
  7. Dial Printing: Looks fine to me
  8. Date Wheel alignment: Date and Day don't look aligned (day is to the right, date looks slightly too high). I've heard these are a common problem on these, so unless its egregious, I think I'm fine with it.
  9. Bezel: Looks fine to me.
  10. Solid End Links (SEL): No visible gap
  11. Hand alignment: When you look closely at the minutes chronograph hand, it looks like it is slightly to the right. It does not match up with the seconds hand (If you look the seconds hand is not directly in the middle of that hand).
  12. Timegrapher numbers: +1s/d
  13. Anything else you notice: Main concern is just the misalignment between the seconds hand and the minutes on the chronograph timer. I had high expectations just because this was listed as a NWBIG and the price is a bit higher, but not sure if what I'm expecting is too much.
