Have my 2531.80 here on the desk in front of me, face sitting flat (as best I can, given the deployant clasp). I'm gonna say that I'm "pretty sure" that the bezel lines up w/ the dial markers here.
The trouble w/ having two eyes is remembering to keep one closed, getting sure about centering the open eye above the center arbor, glancing left and right to make sure I'm seeing the case sides at the same angle....
Given the choice between keeping the watch and having the bezel re-aligned (as John notes), I'd leave the bezel alone. Too much to be potentially compromised, in my opinion, versus the opportunity for gain (more closely aligned bezel, "not a big deal" in your book).
My AD has a 10-day "no questions asked" return policy; and a 14-day exchange policy. When I bought my 2254.50, the diver's extension wasn't perfectly aligned, and that would have been enough for me to have it replaced (if it didn't have to go back for precision accuracy issues).
More generally, I gotta tell you that I tend to be on the side of those who demand these watches perform according to their reputation. That's the only way we all benefit from a rising value proposition.
Thanks for bringing this up.
