I know it fits, but right now the pearl isn't perfectly centered left-to-right over the 12 on the dial. What I'm wondering is, if I put a gen bezel on there, would the pearl on that be aligned the same way?

Got mine in today from Mary, thought I'd put a few pictures up, as well as a video of the ETA 2824 movement since I hadn't seen one around. I guess I can't put a link to the video yet, if someone wants to post it for me let me know. I really like the way it looks so I'm happy with it overall. Not sure yet how well it keeps time, we'll see in a few days. I wound it by turning the crown in first position towards 12 o'clock, hope that was ok to do. When I had the band sized, the jeweler discovered that one of the pins was very loose in its sleeve. The pins in general seem to have a bit of variation in their diameter. He swapped the sleeve from a removed link and that was fine. He also pointed out that the link adjacent to the 12 o'oclock lug link had a tendency to separate. Not sure if that will actually be a problem when I'm wearing it, but it's not a replaceable link. The opposite link doesn't have that problem so it seems like a manufacturing defect. One question -- if I decide to put a gen bezel on, will it line up the same way this one does? Meaning, is the indexing determined by the case which I wouldn't be replacing?
