vikingr Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 Guys, I would appreciate your advice on this one. This is my first rep and I need to let Joshua know in the next 20 hrs if I approve. It's an Explorer ii 42mm. The movement is the 21j. Thanks in advance.
vikingr Posted June 10, 2013 Author Report Posted June 10, 2013 I see a couple spots where the lume is a little sloppy, especially on 12, 9, and 6 in the edges. This seems pretty standard for these. It looks pretty good to me. Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing something huge.
SSTEEL Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 The 12 Triangle is off, and the lume is sloppy on it too, but what you need to remember, is you are looking at close up photos, and these will not be that noticeable when wearing. The correction of the misaligned triangle is easy enough to correct yourself with the correct tools. Up to you my friend really as the misaligned 12 marker is a pretty common flaw with many Rolex reps in the lower price range. 1

Like I said I'm not trying to be nit-picky. I just want some honest opinions. 1
jpz5142 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 I'm not sure if its a known issue with this maker but the SEL on the six o clock looks like its not wright. Maybe the spring bar is not seated correctly?
