Hi D00dz... It's Time For Midweek Wrist Check...!

That's not the Day of the week allignment problem I was talking about! Dont adjust the day/date or photograph your watch between 10P and 2A :)

See, I'm a purist when it comes to photos. I take the pic with the hands pointing where they're pointing and the dates semi-rolled over. Only on rare occasions do I set the watch to 10:08 or align the date cleverly. There's no point in falsifying beyond mild photoshop enhancements. :D

This is what it looked like before The Zigmeister graciously refitted my date wheel (and a genuine dial):

So on the genuine dial, the "S" in Schaffhausen" lines up more or less directly under the left border edge of the date window and in the replica, the "S" sits to the left of this border. Is this the only difference in the two dials?

That and the lack of lume on the rep.

Oh, and the little-known (or seen) issue of the hour sub-dial not being aligned perfectly on-axis, but let's not worry too much about that one, eh?
