=OFF Topic= Mine is like this except it isn’t scratched on the hour and second hands (this shot is taken from the same review on YT): https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220629/c8fce6ff74ddcf42a9c32a4dbb52a812.png This one is more obvious than mine: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220629/2cd7dbf70...

Most of them are delivered this way. Pretty sure the next one will be the same or worse. It is not obvious at all. Only under very certain circumstances.
On the other hand I have time to order another one and decide which one to keep[emoji6]

Black Orca for the sunny evening. The summer is here!

While in this instance it would not bother me, I am not you. If it is a bother, exchange it. If it did bother me, I know I would ask for another. I see most of them on YouTube are delivered this way. I would think it is a non issue for most people as they are not as picky as I am and wouldn‘t inspe...

Hello, I just received my C65 Aquitaine GMT Orca black. I did notice it has some flaws on the second hand, only visible under specific light environment. Here are some shots - from normal viewing distance and one zoomed: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220624/c7a335c81b61759f4f8d268e9efb867a.jpg ...
