Re: Bezel Allignment SPC
In Response To: Bezel Allignment SPC ()

: I just purchased a (2598.80) Seamaster Prof.
: Chronograph. I love the watch...however
: there is one thing that bothers me. The
: bezeled "V" (12 o'clock) does not
: line up with the 12 on the face.

excellent watch. more style, preferable compared to the bond. i also own a 2598.80. i am not sure on how to fix it except to return to the dealer as suggested; however as testament, the bezel on my watch does line up exactly. it should click on the red 60 second mark and everything else should line up also(all markers every 5 second/minute). so it should line up. has nothing to do with perfection; has to do with quality and standards. try returning it and see what happens, no use speculating on dealers response. however, be prepared to debate if the dealer takes a "nothing is perfect" mentality. if it's a reputable dealer, they won't have that mentality.
