Great review Mr Duncan
It would really bug me visually. I cannot see it needed to be offset on the split colour version, but on this its unforgivable. Lovely looking piece, especially on that strap, so I feel your pain!

thanks Jason yup it's up for sale now as I couldn't un-see it!!
I would absolutely send it back, personally. A big misalignment problem like that would drive me up the wall every time I looked at it. Other than that it's a great looking watch, for sure.

cheers Pat it's damned shame as the rest of the watch is really nice!!
Aaaahhh I was looking at buying this watch and now that can't be unseen! It can't be a hangover from two toned GMT rings as the 6 is fine. Can't believe the released it like this...

@@JetPilotCI cheers bud and yeah bit disappointed with this one 😬
Must be cause 18 is the age you turn teenage to adult. But the rush is there... still...😂 Great watch anyways, I could live with that alright. Guess it depends on the OCD level of each one. So, hope no offense taken, you do you mate. Cheers.
Came here from the eBay listing for this exact watch (wanted to put in a bid) and glad I did. I hadn't realised that there was this misalignment and I don't think this is minor at this price. I wouldn't be able to deal with that and so I won't be buying it 🥲 I'm sorry, it is a good review though 😂 too good I'm afraid.

@@BobbyTable hey Bobby thanks bud and yeah like you I couldn't deal with it so decided to sell on, some peeps don't think it's an issue but my ocd says otherwise 😅 thanks again and welcome to the channel 😎👍
You must just have a dodgy one. I would definitely send it back. I watched, Watch Yourself Jorge's hands-on review and his seems to be aligned

Just found his vid and the 18 does look like mine and several people have commented on it but I don't think he understands what they are saying which is a bit odd 🤔
I'd be sending it back at £500 with a wonky print on the bezel, never mind £1100. Unfortunately confirms my general feeling that CW just work on design-by-numbers, without actually really caring about the finished product. Not like they're designing it using pen and paper either - someone has had to sit at their computer and consciously not drag it 1mm anti-clock to realign it. If it was a Hamilton, Tissot, Alpina, or whatever, everyone would be absolutely panning it... but somehow CW gets a free pass from everyone else?

cheers Dunc yeah very true on all counts, I admit I can get rose specs on with some watches but we gotta be honest with our eyes and manufacturers have to be honest with their punters,
That is BAD. This watch is on my radar but maybe not now. Its not OCD, the thing is miles off! 🤨🤨🤨
