the 7 o clock marker is a little bit off, otherwise it seems OK

It seems like QC in general with Angus is slipping. I ask for a timegrapher pic before they send it with my order number on it and they send me some pic of what looks like a different watch on a timegrapher with no number. The movement looked perfect but it seemed too good to be true. I ask again and they send a a picture of another watch on another timegrapher still without the number with a different reading. Really bizarre.

What would be the difference more then the obvious (movt) ?
I think he is implying that people who buy the sellita are more picky.

Thanks. If anyone has any recommendations on who will service this in the SF Bay Area, please message me.

It's not a regulator screw but a lever...was using the term generically.
I realize the 2846 is probably the better movement. It's nickel plated and has an ETA stamp but I realize that probably means nothing. Any advice on where to get this serviced?
I'm a bit irritated that it was advertised as a 2836. It also said it had a unidirectional bezel and actually has a bidirectional one that is fairly "gritty". Overall not very satisfied with this purchase.

I picked up a DRSD from tswisstime. It was sold as having a 2836, but when I opened it up it was a 2846. It keeps atrociously bad time. When I got it, it was gaining over a minute a day. I tried to regulate it a little bit but it basically either runs extremely fast or extremely slow with even the slightest movement of the regulator screw.
Henry @ tswisstime offered to swap a 2836 in to it, but that means I have to send it back to China and wait. Is there anyone I can send this to that can service it? The watch is decent otherwise, but I can't deal with a watch that is this inaccurate.

After approving my QC pics I noticed what looks like a water spot on the rotating bezel. Not sure how I missed it. If I'm lucky it's on the crystal but I doubt it. How much work is it to get to that bezel?
