side angle viewing of DSN 005

[jjfesq]

I just got my DSN 005 and I will post pics asap. This is my first rep. When viewing the watch at extreme angles from the side the crystal distorts the view of the face. To give you guys an idea of what I am talking about this often comes up when driving and your left hand is in the 10 o'clock postition on the steering wheel and you sneek a peek at the watch. There is no issue when that you are looking at the watch in a top down view . Is this a rep only issue or does this happen with gen PAMs also? Is there a solution to this? I do not have this issue with my gen yachtmaster but have seen it on older mineral crystal rolex models. I am not complaining I just want to know if this is some sort of defect. BTW other than this issue I love the watch.

nope dont see it my self, but it is properbly just due to the dome of the crystal

I think it's of the gen too. Unless you have a warped crystal, that seems unlikely.

If you can post a pic of the distorted dial view, that would help to tell.
